Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Anxiety relief (self-report measure 2 - Visual Analog Scale for Anxiety) | 15 to 120 minutes (depends on the duration of the MRI procedure) | Patient's anxiety will be measured using the Visual Analog Scale for Anxiety (VAS-A), a slider scale of 0 - 100 is used to self-report anxiety (0 = not anxious and 100 = extremely anxious), taken before and after the MRI procedure. |
| Anxiety relief (physiological measure - heart rate) | 15 to 120 minutes (depends on the duration of the MRI procedure) | Heart rate is measured before and after the MRI procedure. Increased anxiety may cause elevation of this physiological indicator. |
| MRI completion rate | Immediately after the MRI procedure. | MRI completed successfully = yes or no |
| MRI Image Quality | Immediately after the MRI procedure. | Quality of the images as noted by the radiologist on the MRI report. |
