ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
This case-control study tested a crisis awareness-based chain warning management model for patients with difficulties cooperating with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations.METHODS:
All participants experienced difficulties cooperating with MRI examinations and underwent cranial magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and MRI at the same hospital in China. The control group (n = 1233) underwent examinations from January to June 2023 and received routine nursing care (pre-examination safety notification, instructions on cooperating during the examination, post-examination observation). A crisis awareness chain warning management model was implemented for the intervention group (n = 1352), who underwent examinations from July to December 2023. The groups were compared on average time for examination completion, quality of care and occurrence of complications. Data were collected using a self-devised data collection form.RESULTS:
The average length of time to complete MRS and MRI was shorter for intervention group patients than for control group patients. The intervention group showed better pre-examination preparation, examination success rate, image quality attainment rate, and one-time examination success rate, and lower incidence of examination-related complications.CONCLUSION:
This management model could increase MRI examination efficiency, improve quality of care, reduce complications and increase nurses' understanding of nursing continuity and crisis awareness.Key words
