Preparing a patient for an ‘X-ray’: A student nurse’s pespective of radiographic imaging
چکیده انگلیسی

SummaryThe use of diagnostic technologies is imperative in today’s healthcare setting, aiding accurate diagnosis and correct treatment. This paper critically reviews the use of X-rays in assessing the need for a total knee replacement, by the confirmation of a diagnosis of degenerative joint disease. It provides a comprehensive potted history of the use of X-rays, from the discovery by Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen in 1895 through to the development of the technology by the military to the present day usage of computed radiography.By way of a case study this paper explores issues of patient safety and preparation considering professional and legal implications of consent and a student’s perspective of communication difficulties experienced in gaining this.
