Core Tip |
Specialists at surgical clinics and and intensive care units sometimes need diagnostic procedures that can give quick results or reveal unexpected results. In this study, contrast-enhanced abdominal X-ray (CE-AXR) was used to evaluate diagnosis and treatment efficacy in 131 patients. We sought to determine the problems developing in patients in the perioperative period, revealing their current condition or defining the effectiveness of CE-AXR. It was found that CE-AXR accelerated and facilitated decision-making processes in selected patient groups and did not require further investigation. It was determined that the data obtained from CE-AXR contributed to the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up expectations in 98 patients (74.8%) and also had a positive impact on clinical processes. CE-AXR is a procedure that can be performed almost anywhere with a portable X-ray machine, particularly at bedside, and in intensive care units and clinics. |
