초록

본 연구는 일개대학병원의 디지털 이동방사선검사 장비를 대상으로 이동방사선검사 시 검출기와 장비의 세균학적 오염도를 조사하여 이동방사선검사 장비로 인한 병원감염을 예방하고자 실시하였다. 중환자실 감염관리 환자는 검출기위에 비닐을 씌우고 검사를 실시한 후 비닐 위에서 검체를 채취한 결과 CNS, VRE가 검출되었고 비닐을 제거한 검출기에서는 균이 발견되지 않았다. 일반병실 환자를 연속해서 검사한 결과, 1번 환자에서는 균이 발견되지 않았고, 2번과 3번 환자에서는 CNS, 4번 환자는 CNS, Enterococcus faecalis, 5번 환자는 CNS, Enterococcus casseliflavus, 6번 환자에서는 CNS, Enterococcus casseliflavus, Klebsiella pneumoniae가 검출되었다. 조사야 조절 손잡이에서는 CNS, Enterococcus faecium이 검출되었다. X-선 발생스위치, 검출기 손잡이에서는 CNS가 검출되었다. 검사 후 방사선사의 진료 장갑에서는 CNS, Enterococcus gallinarum, Klebsiella pneumoniae가 검출되었다. 따라서 1회 검사 후 검출기를 소독하고 재검사 하는 방법과 검출기에 1회용 비닐을 씌워 검사한 후 제거하는 방법을 권장하며, 진료장갑은 1회 검사 후 반드시 새로운 장갑으로 교체해야 한다. 또한, 검사 중 많이 조작하는 조사야 조절 손잡이의 철저한 소독과 근무자의 감염교육을 통해 이동방사선검사로 인한 병원감염을 예방하여야 한다.

The study was performed to investigate the bacteriological contamination of portable digital radiography system and their detectors in a university hospital. CNS and VRE were detected in the samples collected from vinyl cover on detectors used for the infection control patients. On the other hand, no bacteria was detected in the samples collected from detectors with vinyl cover removed. In the series of imaging of patients from general wards, no bacteria was detected from the patient 1. However, CNS was detected from the patients 2 and 3, CNS and Enterococcus faecalis detected from the patient 4, CNS and Enterococcus casseliflavus detected from the patient 5, and CNS, Enterococcus casseliflavus, and Klebsiella pneumoniae all detected from the patient 6. CNS and Enterococcus faecium were detected in the controller handle of collimator. Also, CNS was detected from the handle of detector and exposure switch. In the treatment gloves of the radiological technologist after the imaging, CNS, Enterococcus gallinarum, and Klebsiella pneumoniae were detected. Therefore, it is recommended for DR portable to take images after sterilizing the detector after taking each image and to use disposable vinyl covers on detectors to remove after imaging. And treatment gloves must be changed after each imaging. Also, hospital infection via portables must be prevented by complete sterilization of the controller handles of collimator which are in frequent contact during imaging and infection education of employees.
