Summary

Orthopedic surgeons widely accepted the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) one year post-implementation, noting faster image retrieval and improved patient care. However, monitor quality in operating theaters needs enhancement, and ongoing PACS training is crucial for sustained success.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging Informatics
  • Radiology Department Workflow Optimization
  • Health Information Technology Adoption

Background:

  • Web-based Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) are increasingly integrated into clinical settings.
  • Evaluating user acceptance and system performance is crucial for successful implementation.
  • Orthopedic surgery departments often have unique workflow demands impacting PACS utility.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the acceptance and perceived impact of a web-based PACS among orthopedic surgeons.
  • To evaluate system performance metrics including image retrieval times and meeting quality.
  • To identify areas for improvement in PACS implementation and training.

Main Methods:

  • A standardized questionnaire survey was administered to physicians one year after PACS implementation.

Autologous Microfractured and Purified Adipose Tissue for Arthroscopic Management of Osteochondral Lesions of the Talus

Published on: January 23, 2018

  • Data were collected on PACS speed, clinicoradiological meeting quality, monitor quality, training adequacy, and overall performance.
  • Responses were analyzed separately for orthopedic surgeons and a reference group of other physicians.

    • Main Results:

    • 92% of orthopedic surgeons reported reduced image retrieval times, with 64% noting faster patient care.
    • Image access improved significantly, with 82% receiving images in under 5 minutes post-PACS compared to 8% before.
    • 100% reported improved clinicoradiological meetings; 83% found operating theater viewing equipment good/very good, and 100% rated outpatient clinic monitor quality highly.

    Conclusions:

    • Overall acceptance of PACS by non-radiology physicians is high, with significant improvements in image availability and speed.
    • Enhancements are needed for operating theater monitor quality, and consistent PACS training is essential for sustained success.
    • Missed conventional radiograms during ward rounds and the need for refresher training highlight areas for further system refinement.
