MRI Patient Assessment ManagementThe MRI Scan Room can be a dangerous place if a wayward object containing metal enters the room. MRI’s have a magnet with a pull that is more than 50 times greater than the earth’s gravitational force. If a metallic object enters the MRI Scan Room, it will be pulled toward the magnet. Patients and staff have been injured, and, in some cases, fatally injured, when wayward metallic objects have entered the room and a Patient and Staff member was located within the path of travel of the metallic object being pulled toward the magnet.
Ensuring that MRI Patients enter the MRI Scan Room without any metallic object is a process that involves inter and intra-departmental efforts and communications. Those efforts and communications need to be aligned with the tasks at hand. This module helps ensure that alignment is in place and it works in harmony with our other modules. |
