Abstract

Emergencies can be caused by disease, natural disasters and accidents. In the Radiology Installation, patients are no exception with emergencies that require immediate treatment due to trauma, illness or accidents experienced by the patient, apart from that the emergency situation that occurs in the Radiology Installation is that the patient has an allergic reaction to the contrast medium. The solution offered is training regarding handlers on radiographic examinations of emergency patients and first aid for patients who experience contrast media allergies. The training aims to improve soft skills and add insight to radiographers, alumni and D3 Radiology Study Program students by means of training in the effective and efficient handling of emergency patients at the Radiology Installation. From the results of the pretest and posttest, an increase of 20% was obtained, this shows success in increasing radiographers' understanding of handling patients in emergencies at radiology installations.

Abstract

Background: Periapical radiography is an intraoral imaging technique used to visualize the structures of the teeth and periapical tissues. During the Field Practice Program (PKL) at RS TK III dr. Soetarto Yogyakarta, it was found that the incidence of film rejects remained relatively high. Several contributing factors include unstable patient positioning, sudden movements during the procedure, and suboptimal communication of instructions during image acquisition. This condition is further exacerbated by the absence of fixation devices that could help maintain patient positioning, leaving radiographers to rely solely on verbal guidance. Therefore, research is needed to identify the factors contributing to the high rate of film rejects and to explore efforts that can be implemented to reduce them, thereby optimizing the quality of periapical radiographic images. Methods: This study used a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through interviews with 5 patients and 3 radiographers, observation of examination procedures, and documentation of film reject data from July 1 to September 23, 2025. Data analysis was conducted through reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing to obtain a comprehensive overview of the conditions in the Radiology Department of RS TK III dr. Soetarto Yogyakarta. Results: Film reject data showed consistently high rates: 31.4% in July, 28.2% in August, and 30% in September 2025. The dominant contributing factors were patient movement, improper cassette positioning, and miscommunication during radiographic procedures. Based on interviews, several patients reported difficulties in maintaining position and following the radiographer’s instructions, while radiographers stated that the absence of fixation aids posed an additional challenge in maintaining accurate positioning. Clearer communication efforts were found to help reduce positioning errors and patient movement. Conclusions:The high rate of film rejects in periapical radiography at RS TK III dr. Soetarto Yogyakarta is primarily caused by patient movement, cassette positioning errors, and suboptimal communication. Improving communication, providing pre-examination education, and supplying fixation tools have the potential to reduce film reject rates and improve the quality of periapical radiographic images

Abstract

Background: The colon in loop (CIL) examination at the Radiology Department of RSPAU Dr. Suhardi Hardjolukito employs the following projections: single-contrast AP, lateral, RPO, and LPO, followed by double-contrast AP, RPO, LPO, and post-evacuation AP. The procedure utilizes water-soluble contrast media without the use of a balloon to secure the catheter. Methods: This study adopts a qualitative approach using a case study method. Subjects include one radiology specialist and three radiographers. The research was conducted from August 2024 to September 2025. Data were collected through direct observation, interviews, and documentation, followed by data processing, analysis, and conclusion drawing. Results: Findings from the Radiology Department of RSPAU Dr. Suhardi Hardjolukito indicate that the use of water-soluble contrast media is safer for patients at risk of perforation, as it is easily absorbed by the body and carries a low risk of complications. Additionally, the use of a catheter without a balloon proves effective, as it does not interfere with rectal visualization and reduces the risk of irritation or excessive pressure in the area. Conclusion: The CIL examination using water-soluble contrast media and a catheter without a balloon is a safe and effective method, especially for patients suspected of having a risk of perforation. The choice of contrast media should be tailored to the patient's clinical condition, and the use of fluoroscopy is recommended to enhance efficiency and accuracy in the examination procedure.
