The Implant Quality Program
The Implant Quality (IQ) program from Zoetis helps you get the most out of your Synovex® C implant. It provides:
- Establishment of implanting goals
- Development of a customized quality assurance (QA) program to fit the operation’s goals
- Training of crew members in correct sanitation and implanting techniques
- Monitoring and analysis of results
The program includes several useful tools:
- Sanitation gear, including a disinfecting tray, sponge and ear brush, to help clean the ear prior to implanting
- Service reports to assess implanting techniques of the processing crew and to check animals for implant retention three to four weeks later (available in paper or electronic formats)
- Certificates of completion for all members of the processing crew
