Iikhrayitheriya zeSigqibo esitsha Zinokunciphisa ii-CT Scans zeNtloko ezingeyomfuneko emva kokuwa kwabantu abadala

Njengabantu abalupheleyo, amasebe kaxakeka ayanda ukuphatha inani elikhulu labantu abadala abawayo. Ukuwa kumhlaba olinganayo, njengakwikhaya lomntu, kuyeyona nto iphambili ekubangeleni ukopha ebuchotsheni. Ngelixa i-computed tomography (CT) i-scan scan yentloko isetyenziswa rhoqo ekuvavanyeni izigulane eziye zawa, umkhuba wokuthumela isigulane ngasinye esiwayo kwi-head scan ayisebenzi kwaye ibiza.

UDkt. Kerstin de Wit, kunye noogxa abavela kwiNethiwekhi yabaphandi baseCanada abaNgxamisekileyo, uye waphawula ukuba ukusetyenziswa ngokugqithiseleyo kwe-CT scans kweli qela lezigulane kunokukhokelela ekubeni uhlale ixesha elide kwisebe elingxamisekileyo. Oku kudityaniswe nesiganeko esiphezulu se-delirium kwaye kunokubangela uxinzelelo kwizibonelelo ezinokuthi zisetyenziswe kwezinye izigulane eziphuthumayo. Ukongeza, amanye amasebe kaxakeka akanazo izixhobo zokuskena ze-CT imini nobusuku, nto leyo ethetha ukuba izigulana ezithile zinokufuna ukuba zisiwe kwelinye iziko.

Iqela loogqirha abasebenza kumasebe angxamisekileyo kulo lonke elaseKhanada nase-United States babambisene ukuqulunqa uMthetho weSigqibo se-Falls. Esi sixhobo senza ukuchongwa kwezigulane ekunokuthi kukhuselekile ukutsiba intloko ye-CT scan ukujonga ukopha kwe-intracranial emva kokuwa. Uphononongo lubandakanya abantu abangama-4308 abaneminyaka eyi-65 okanye ngaphezulu ukusuka kumasebe angama-11 kaxakeka eCanada nase-US, ababefuna ukhathalelo olungxamisekileyo kwiiyure ezingama-48 zokuwa. Ubudala obuphakathi babathathi-nxaxheba yiminyaka engama-83, i-64% kubo yayingabasetyhini. I-26% yayithatha amayeza e-anticoagulant kwaye i-36% yayithatha amayeza e-antiplatelet, zombini ziyaziwa ngokunyusa ingozi yokopha.

Ngokusebenzisa umgaqo, kunokwenzeka ukuphelisa imfuno yentloko ye-CT scans kwi-20% yabantu abafundayo, okwenza ukuba isebenze kubo bonke abantu abadala abaye bafumana ukuwa, kungakhathaliseki ukuba bafumene ukulimala kwentloko okanye banokukhumbula ukuwa. isiganeko. Esi sikhokelo esitsha sisongezelelo esixabisekileyo kwi-Canadian CT Head rule esekelwe kakuhle, eyenzelwe izigulane ezifumana ukuphazamiseka, i-amnesia, okanye ukulahlekelwa yingqondo.

Ukusukela ekusekweni kwayo, i-LnkMed ibigxile kwintsimi yee-ejenti zokuchasa ngoxinzelelo oluphezulu. Iqela lobunjineli be-LnkMed likhokelwa yi-Ph.D. uneminyaka engaphezu kweshumi yamava kwaye uzibandakanye nzulu kuphando nophuhliso. Phantsi kokhokelo lwakhe, iCT isitofu sentloko enye,CT isitofu sentloko kabini,Isitofu se-agent ye-MRI yokuchasana, kwayeI-Angiography yoxinzelelo oluphezulu lwe-ejenti yokuchasaziyilwe ngezi mpawu: umzimba owomeleleyo noxineneyo, ujongano olufanelekileyo nolukrelekrele lokusebenza, imisebenzi epheleleyo, ukhuseleko oluphezulu, kunye noyilo oluhlala ixesha elide. Sinokubonelela ngeesirinji kunye netyhubhu ehambelana nezo mpawu zidumileyo ze-CT, iMRI, ii-injection ze-DSA Ngesimo sabo sengqondo esinyanisekileyo kunye namandla obuchwephesha, bonke abasebenzi be-LnkMed bayakumema ngokunyanisekileyo ukuba uze uhlolisise iimarike ezininzi kunye.
