| Event Description | The following information was provided by Utah Department of Environmental Quality, Division of Waste Management [the Division] and Radiation Control, via email:
On December 8, 2023 at 1550 MST, the RSO [radiation safety officer] for IHC Health Services, Inc. DBA Utah Valley Hospital called the Division to report an incident. This was a preliminary report made by the licensee's RSO who was not on-site at the time. The licensee was exchanging a Bracco Cardiogen Generator at their facility, but when they went to make the exchange, the licensee found approximately one half inch of liquid in the well. The licensee has notified the manufacturer of the incident and is working with them to mitigate the situation. This is the second generator of this type that has been found leaking at the licensee's facility. The licensee's RSO does not have all of the necessary information at this time and will contact the Division with the additional information as soon as possible. An update to this report will be provided when the information is received. Utah Event Report ID No.: UT23-0009 |
