Factors Influencing CT Scan Anxiety

The study investigates the factors that trigger anxiety in patients undergoing Computed Tomography (CT) scans, particularly focusing on differences between male and female patients at Cagayan Valley Medical Center. Anxiety can lead to patients discontinuing procedures or refusing future scans, potentially influencing others' decisions as well. The research aims to provide valuable insights for radiologic technologists, patients, and future researchers.

ABSTRACT

Patients experience anxiety to computed tomography procedures due

to fear of pain or the negative past experiences of those around them.

Patients who experience a psychological reaction during a scan may

either discontinue the procedure altogether, refuse to undertake

Computed Tomography (CT) scan procedures in the future and may also

influence other patients needing at medical Computed Tomography (CT)

scan in the future.

The purpose of the study is to know the factors trigger anxiety

to the patients undergoing Computed Tomography (CT) scan and the

differences of male and female patients undergoing Computed Tomography

scan in Cagayan Valley Medical Center (CVMC). Radiologic

Technologists, Patients, Researchers, and Future Researchers were

regarded as beneficial to the study for additional knowledge because

this study is acknowledged to be a productive source of educational

foundation.
