In MRI, if you aren't aware of the safety protocols, people can, and most likely will, get hurt.
This is a review of general, but EXTREMELY important, MRI safety. Although most of us don't work in MRI, we could be asked to help with a transfer or even in a Code Blue situation. This is why it has been added to our yearly departmental review. If you don't know the answers. . . Please visit the lovely staff in MRI and they would be more than happy to help you.
Yes. There is no difference in how the Code team cares for the patient in the MRI scan room.
No. This is a major safety risk. When a Code blue is called, the patient must be removed from the scanner with the use of MRI compatible stretchers. They are then brought out into the pt holding area to allow for safe treatment from the Code Team. The scanner door must also be locked to ensure other staff does not enter the room during the Code.
Because we all know how hard it is to find wheelchairs around here.
Because if anyone ever fainted, the staff need a place to lie patients down.
Because this stretcher and wheelchair are MRI compatible and they are the only ones that can actually enter the scan room safely.

Be careful and treat the area as if it is a sterile field.
Complete a MRI screening form to ensure that you are not putting yourself at risk by entering the scan room. If the scanning form clears you to enter the room, you may do so at that time.
Complete a MRI screening form to ensure that you are not putting yourself at risk by entering the scan room. If you are clear to go in, you must also remove all pagers, cell phones, badges, coins, pens, scissors, jewellery that isn't real gold or silver (non-ferromagnetic= not attracted to magnet) watches, credit cards, banks cards and anything else that is in your pockets. **Note** Digital watches may be worn because they are not afffected by the magnetic field.
Rate this question:
Because of the remoteness of the area.
Pager and Cell phones don't work in MRI.
Most staff are unaware of the importance of MRI safety and don't realize that the patient cannot be cared for inside the MRI scanner room.
Rate this question:
True
False
Rate this question:
If the patient HAS worked with metal and they are not 100% sure that they have never had metal go in their eye.
If the patient HAS had a piece of metal in their eye and they are not 100% sure that the Doctor did remove it all. (ie. did not have orbits done after to confirm 100% removal)
If the patient is unconscious and no CT head (that demonstrated orbits well) has been done recently.
All of the above.
