Nurse practitioners (NPs), as key healthcare professional, play a critical role in the provision and coordination of care, prevention of adverse events, health service throughput, and patient outcomes. Patient experience is considered as one of the pillars of quality in healthcare, along with patient safety and clinical outcomes. Based on the aforementioned, nurse practitioners have a vital role in providing clinical nursing care to patients within or outside of the immediate medical imaging (MI) working environment. Their evolving role expansion in medical imaging is documented in the literature. The purpose of this chapter is to create further awareness of the nurse practitioner in medical imaging.

“…Enfermeiros podem aprimorar sua prática radiológica por meio de habilidades de avaliação e iniciativas baseadas em evidência. Pesquisas recentes investigaram a experiência de enfermeiros fora de departamentos de radiologia no cuidado aos pacientes que passavam por intervenções radiológicas (6)(7) , Além disso, estudos anteriores investigaram o conhecimento de enfermeiros e sua prática na radiação ionizante em vários países, incluindo África do Sul, Arábia Saudita, Nigéria e Finlândia (8)(9)(10) . Estudos prévios também avaliaram o conhecimento e a prática de enfermeiros quanto ao meio de contraste da tomografia computadorizada e no que diz respeito aos protocolos de segurança para tomografia computadorizada cardíaca (10)(11) .…”

Objective: to assess nurses’ knowledge and practice toward computed tomography scan safety guidelines. Methods: a cross-sectional study was conducted using a convenience sample of 131 nurses from two government hospitals. Self-designed questionnaire was used to assess nurses’ sociodemographic characteristics, knowledge, and practice. Descriptive analysis was performed to evaluate characteristics, correlations were evaluated using Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient, and the Mann-Whitney U and the Kruskal-Wallis H tests were used to compare the mean ranks of knowledge and practice scores. Results: most respondents were female (91.6%), were aged 20–29 years (57.3%), and had bachelor’s degrees (74%). Knowledge and practice levels were 58% and 78.9% respectively. A positive correlation between knowledge and practice was observed among nurses (r=0.684, p<0.001). No statistically significant differences were observed between sociodemographic characteristics and knowledge and practice scores. Conclusion: nurses showed adequate level of practice toward computed tomography scan safety preparations while their knowledge level was deficient. Contributions to practice: this study informs the importance of knowledge in guiding nursing practice toward appropriate computed tomography scan safety measures.
