Increasing imaging volume has put a unique strain on sonographers, asked to acquire more complex studies and perform detailed data entry in less time. 1 Left unchecked, this may lead to sonographer errors that prolong the time required to analyze studies or contribute to misdiagnosis. 2, 3 As such, we evaluated a system of weekly sonographer performance feedback.Physicians were mandated to evaluate sonographer performance on 26 technical errors and 17 scan omissions (Table), 2018–2020, using a simple graphical interface in EncaptureMD™(Flexible Informatics, Bala Cynwyd, PA). Sonographers were aware, but were only provided with feedback in weekly emails from the technical director, starting in January, 2019. We evaluated error rates, 2019–2020 (feedback period) vs. 2018 (pre-feedback). Images were acquired by one of 17 sonographers (mean 16.4±10.3 years of experience in 2018, range 0–37) using General Electric E-95 or Vivid S70 echocardiographs (GE Healthcare, Waukesha, WI). Sonographers performed a mean of 6.3 TTEs/day and physicians read a mean of 35.8 TTEs/day. Sonographer staffing was identical across study years.
