摘要
背景:本研究旨在评估与静脉功能不全的双相超声(DUS)检查相关的实践模式的变异性:本研究旨在评估与静脉功能不全的双工超声检查(DUS)相关的实践模式的差异性:方法:超声技师参与了一项关于患者体位、增强方法以及是否有符合人体工程学的 DUS 设备的调查:结果:41%的超声技师采用RT体位进行DUS检查,40%的超声技师采用站立体位。在 18% 的实验室中,如果 RT 体位未显示反流,则以站立位重复研究。只有 22% 的实验室将自动充气罩囊充气装置作为主要的增强方法:VDU中患者体位和扩容方法的性能参数缺乏标准化,这可能会导致超声技师和机构之间的结果存在差异。
Standardizing practice patterns for venous insufficiency ultrasound.
Background: This study aimed to evaluate the variability in practice patterns associated with the performance of duplex ultrasound (DUS) for venous insufficiency.
Methods: Sonographers participated in a survey regarding patient positioning and method of augmentation as well as the availability of ergonomic equipment for DUS.
Results: DUS was performed in RT position by 41% of sonographers versus standing position in 40%. In 18% of laboratories, if the RT position did not demonstrate reflux, the study was repeated in the standing position. An automated cuff inflation device was used as the primary method of augmentation in only 22% of practices.
Conclusions: There is a lack of standardization for the performance parameters of patient position and method of augmentation in VDU, which may lead to variation in the results between sonographers and institutions.
