Resumo(s)
Due to the nature of imaging departments, clinical audit, quality improvement and safety topics have specific components that are not observed in other services or departments, as they have the particularity of performing imaging procedures that involve the application of ionizing radiation, in most cases 1. Within the complexities of these procedures, the patient's inability to choose the best procedure stands out, leaving the healthcare professionals involved the responsibility to select the best patient-centred procedure, with the application of the most effective and efficient protocol depending on the patient clinical situation, based on the available evidence, and applying the lowest radiation dose possible.
This poster intends to address a set of tools aiming to assess professional performance and encourage changes in the practices adopted, such as Clinical Audit, Evidence-based Practice and Guidelines, which can be integrated in a major concept of clinical governance as a system of measures and procedures to deliver the best care to the patient.
