ABSTRACT
Film holder is used for the Intrabuccal Radiographic Technique (Entrance 453, Ministry of Health, Brazil). This procedure seeks radioprotection, lowering technique mistakes. However, patient's collaboration is necessary to adapt the device. The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the effectiveness of HanShin (Japan), Indusbelo and Imagem (Brazil), and Rinn (USA) X-Ray film positioners as 1) Technical quality and 2) Comfort (adaptation), correlating to patient's cooperation (Discipline of Integrated Clinical Diagnosis -2000 and 2001-FORP/USP). The methodology applied was 1st) Protocol of Mistake in Radiographic Technique with film holders and 2nd) Interview Questionnaire to obtain information regarding comfort of the film holders (C=Cooperative; LC= Little Cooperative and NC=Non-Cooperative). During clinical activities each student x-rayed three patients (Apparel of X-Rays 70KVp, 10mA, E Film, Radiographic Processing) and in each patient, a film holder brand was used. As a result of 224 patients' studied, 1179 radiographs were obtained, 255 of those presenting "technique mistakes”, according to the brand of the film holder 16 percent HanShin, 10 percent Indusbelo, 31 percent Rinn, 33 percent Imagem and 33 percent bisecting line technique (without film holder). Regarding comfort the following results were obtained HanShin C=95 percent, LC=4 percent and NC=1 percent; Indusbelo C=89 percent, LC=6 percentand NC=5 percent; Imagem C=95 percent, LC=3 percent and NC=2 percent and Rinn C=60 percent, LC=25 percent and NC=15 percent. It was concluded that the brands Hanshin, Imagem and Indusbelo are suitable for dental radiographic exam and that the Rinn brand produces more discomfort, because its size dimensions are not ideal for the size and form pattern of the Dental Arch in the population used in this study.
RESUMEN
El posicionador porta películas está indicado en la Técnica Radiográfica Intraoral (Resolución 453, Ministerio de la Salud, Brasil). Este procedimiento permite la radio protección, minimizando el error de técnica; sin embargo, es necesaria la colaboración del paciente para la adaptación del dispositivo. El objetivo de esta investigación-enseñanza fue evaluar la efectividad de los posicionadores de marcas HanShin (Japón), Indusbelo, Imagem (Brasil) y Rinn (USA), en relación a 1) Calidad Técnica y 2) Confort (adaptación) correlacionándolo con la colaboración del paciente (Disciplina de Diagnóstico Clínico Integrado-2000 y 2001-FORP/USP). Como metodología de investigación se utilizaron 1ª)Protocolo de Errores de Técnica Radiográfica con Posicionador y 2º) Cuestionario de entrevista para la obtención de las informaciones relativas a la comodidad del posicionador (C=Cooperaba; CP=Cooperaba poco y NC=No cooperaba). Durante las actividades clínicas, cada alumno radiografió a tres pacientes (Aparato de Rayos X, 70kvp, 10mA, Film E, Procesamiento Radiográfico Manual) y en cada paciente se utilizó una marca de posicionador. Como resultado de la atención de 224 pacientes, se obtuvieron 1179 radiografías; de ellas, 255 presentaron “errores de técnica”, debido a la marca del posicionador 16 por ciento HanShin; 10 por ciento Indusbelo; 31 por ciento Rinn; 33 por ciento Imagem, y Técnica da Bissetriz, sin posicionador, 33 por ciento. En relación al confort, se obtuvieron los siguientes

resultados:

HanShin C=95 por ciento, CP=4 por ciento y NC=1 por ciento; Indusbelo C=89 por ciento, CP=6 por ciento y NC=5 por ciento; Imagem C=95 por ciento, CP=3 por ciento y NC=2 por ciento y Rinn C=60 por ciento, CP=25 por ciento y NC=15 por ciento. Se concluye que las marcas Hanshin, Imagem e Indusbelo son las indicadas para el examen radiográfico odontológico y que la marca Rinn produce más incomodidad.
