醫(yī)學(xué)知識(shí)和技術(shù)以驚人的速度發(fā)展。今天的許多常規(guī)檢查和程序在幾十年前是無(wú)法想象的。盡管有了所有的創(chuàng)新，人們?nèi)匀皇俏覀冡t(yī)療保健的核心。這意味著人為錯(cuò)誤總是有可能的。

以脊柱外科為例。根據(jù)北美脊柱協(xié)會(huì)(NASS) 2014年的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查，68%的受訪者表示，在他們職業(yè)生涯的某個(gè)階段，他們要么進(jìn)行了錯(cuò)誤水平的暴露，要么對(duì)脊柱進(jìn)行了錯(cuò)誤水平的手術(shù)。不準(zhǔn)確的手術(shù)不僅會(huì)對(duì)患者造成極大的傷害，而且由此引發(fā)的訴訟可能會(huì)導(dǎo)致超過(guò)100萬(wàn)美元的損失。

醫(yī)學(xué)的任何領(lǐng)域都可能發(fā)生錯(cuò)誤。雖然有許多因素可以導(dǎo)致它們，但許多是可以預(yù)防的。一種策略是用不透光的標(biāo)記提高檢測(cè)和程序的準(zhǔn)確性。

什么是不透光標(biāo)記?

射線不透明標(biāo)記是一種印刷指示器，具有特殊的墨水，在射線掃描上可見(jiàn)。通常，這些標(biāo)記使用粘合劑粘在病人的皮膚上。通過(guò)知道這些標(biāo)記的確切位置并在掃描中顯示出來(lái)，醫(yī)療專業(yè)人員可以更準(zhǔn)確地確定參考點(diǎn)或關(guān)注區(qū)域。

如何提高醫(yī)學(xué)掃描和程序的準(zhǔn)確性:射線不透明標(biāo)記

不透輻射標(biāo)記在各種測(cè)試中都很有用，包括:

x射線

核磁共振成像

CT掃描

乳房x光檢查

透視

血管造影術(shù)

緊貼皮膚的不透射線標(biāo)記的好處

射線不透明標(biāo)記物是一種有效和經(jīng)濟(jì)有效的方法，以提高醫(yī)療專業(yè)人員的準(zhǔn)確性和患者的整體安全。更精確的檢測(cè)和更清晰的信息可以減少患者接受的放射檢查次數(shù)，或幫助降低外科手術(shù)的侵入性。例如，使用不透明標(biāo)記物進(jìn)行表面部位相關(guān)性可以將脊柱手術(shù)切口大小減少約50%。(BMC muscle culoskeleton Disord 5,8， (2004))*

除了更積極的結(jié)果，這些不透明的標(biāo)記還可以減少程序中出現(xiàn)錯(cuò)誤或疏忽的機(jī)會(huì)，這可以防止昂貴的醫(yī)療事故訴訟對(duì)供應(yīng)商。

以下是使用不透光標(biāo)記物的更多好處:

更精確的成像

創(chuàng)建沒(méi)有工件的精確參考點(diǎn)

減小手術(shù)切口大小

減少輻射

擴(kuò)大使用大的普通x射線

Medical knowledge and technology have advanced at incredible rates. Many of today’s routine tests and procedures would have been unimaginable just a few decades ago. Yet with all the innovation, people are still the heart of our medical care. And that means human error is always a possibility.

Take, for instance, the field of spinal surgery. According to a 2014 survey by the North American Spine Society (NASS), 68% of respondents stated that at some point in their careers, they performed either wrong-level exposures or wrong-level surgeries on the spine. Not only can inaccurate procedures be extremely harmful to patients but resulting lawsuits can result in damages over $1 million.

Mistakes can happen in any area of medicine. While there are numerous factors that can cause them, many are preventable. One strategy is improving the accuracy of testing and procedures with radiopaque markers.

WHAT ARE RADIOPAQUE MARKERS?

Radiopaque markers are a type of printed indicator featuring special inks that are visible on radiographic scans. Often, these markers use adhesives to stick to the patient’s skin. By knowing the exact location of these markers and having them show up on a scan, medical professionals can more accurately identify reference points or areas of concern.

HOW TO BOOST MEDICAL SCANS & PROCEDURES ACCURACY: RADIOPAQUE MARKERS

Radiopaque markers are useful in a variety of tests, including:

X-Ray

MRI

CT scan

Mammography

Fluoroscopy

Angiography

BENEFITS OF STICK-TO-SKIN RADIOPAQUE MARKERS

Radiopaque markers are an effective and cost-efficient way to improve the accuracy of medical professionals and overall safety for patients. More precise testing and clearer information can reduce the number of radiographic tests a patient is subjected to, or help make surgical procedures less invasive. For example, the usage of radiopaque markers for a surface site correlation can reduce a spinal surgery incision size by roughly 50%. (BMC Musculoskelet Disord 5, 8, (2004))*

In addition to more positive outcomes, these radiopaque markers can also reduce the chance of a mistake or oversight during a procedure, which can prevent costly malpractice lawsuits against providers.

Here are more benefits of using radiopaque markers:

More accurate imaging

Creates precise reference points without artifacts

Decreased surgical incision size

Reduced radiation exposure

Expanded use of large plain X-ray

Reduced dependency on inaccurate palpation

Single-use and disposable

Can be customized into many shapes and sizes
