Tru-Vu Wrist Positioning Aid Multi-Center Implementation Within NLHS

Resumen breve

This study has two primary aims: 1) to determine whether a novel wrist x-ray positioning aid can be implemented within 3 different healthcare centers in Newfoundland and Labrador, and 2) to determine the ability of the tool to improve patient positioning in wrist x-rays. It will also learn about the number of repeat x-rays required with or without the use of the tool and radiographer confidence. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Will the implementation of the Tru-Vu differ between an urban health center, rural clinic, and remote regional hospital? 2. Can the Tru-Vu improve the positioning procedure for radiographers performing wrist x-rays, resulting with more useful x-rays. Researchers will compare x-rays before and after the implementation of the tool as well as between centers. Technologist participants will: * Use the tool during the positioning procedure for wrist x-rays. * Provide feedback regarding tool use and perceived implementation barriers and facilitators.
