摘要

门诊放射中心的晚间和周末影像服务为患者提供了更多的影像诊断机会,有可能提高患者的满意度和可及性,尤其是对服务不足的人群而言。本综述探讨了与下班后运营相关的益处和挑战,重点关注健康公平、患者满意度、经济因素、能源和成本节约以及对医疗专业人员的影响。研究结果表明,虽然下班后运营可以提高患者满意度和就医机会,但也带来了运营成本增加和员工疲劳等挑战。改进策略包括优化排班、利用技术改善排班和沟通,以及加强以患者为中心的护理。影像中心之间的合作可以进一步改善服务的提供和效率。

Evaluating the Pros and Cons of Evening and Weekend Outpatient Medical Imaging: Implications for Patients and Radiology Professionals
Evening and weekend imaging services at outpatient radiology centers offer extended access to diagnostic imaging, potentially increasing patient satisfaction and accessibility, especially for underserved populations. This review explores the benefits and challenges associated with these after-hours operations, focusing on health equity, patient satisfaction, economic considerations, energy and cost savings, and the impact on healthcare professionals. Findings indicate that while after-hours operations can enhance patient satisfaction and access, they also pose challenges such as increased operational costs and staff fatigue. Strategies for improvement include optimizing shift schedules, leveraging technology for better scheduling and communication, and enhancing patient-centered care. Collaborative efforts among imaging centers can further improve service delivery and efficiency.
