Use of effective PPE when imaging a confirmed COVID 19 positive patient
Population - patients with confirmed diagnosis of COVID 19 who require imaging
Intervention - different forms of PPE to be used
Comparison - when the same PPE is used on COVID negative patients
Outcome - testing regularly for the radiographers to confirm COVID has not been caught through this method
Time frame - testing for 10 days after contact with the COVID positive patient

# data[].attributes.body
A qualitative survey of patients with a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19(P) having received CXR imaging(I) to compare patient concerns, treatment, and care(C) in the X-ray department during the pandemic compared to experiences received by patients outside the pandemic under 'routine' circumstances. This would help to inform clinical practice and aid understanding of the priorities and concerns patients are arriving in the X-ray department with in order for staff to alleviate them, improve communication and co-operation and enhance patient outcomes (O). This could be done by surveying patients who underwent CXR after covid diagnosis, and comparing to existing research conducted pre-pandemic (T).

# data[].attributes.body
A study to evaluate the experiences of radiographers who worked on the covid wards and how safe they felt compared to those working in general x-ray. Could compare the level of PPE available and used in the two environments and the number of radiographers who had a confirmed positive diagnosis in either environment.

The Study
A study to compare the experiences of pregnant patients undergoing antenatal ultrasounds during the Covid-19 pandemic in comparison to the experiences of patients having their scan pre-covid.

Potential areas to explore:
* What was the experience like?
*Did the experience impact on their feelings towards their pregnancy health / the NHS ?
* Did they feel safe from covid during thei ultrasound scan?
* Was the antenatal imaging care as good?
* Were they allowed to bring other friends / family / supporters to their scan? If not how did this impact on their experience.
*Was the information provided to them about covid at the ultrasound relevant and useful?

Population - patients who were pregnant and had antenatal ultrasounds prior to the pandemic vs patients who had ultrasounds during the pandemic / lockdowns.

Intervention - do a survey to gather qualitative data on their experience of their antenatal scan. This could help the NHS improve the ultrasound experience for expectant mothers in the future (if there are more lockdowns / restrictions)

Comparison - compare their experience to those of pre-covid pregnant women. Could ask women who had a child before the pandemic and then had another during the pandemic to see how their experiences of the ultrasound was different.

Outcome - having a greater understanding of how covid-19 impacted on the ultrasound experience of expectant mothers in the UK. Gain insight into how to improve antenatal services provided by the NHS as the pandemic develops.

Time - ask women who were pregnant and had an antenatal scan during the lockdowns / biggest peaks of the pandemic.

A study to evaluate the experiences of COVID patients getting an ultrasound in comparison to the experiences of non-COVID patients getting an ultrasound and how the infection control measures were different/effective in each case seeing as ultrasound is quite a close-contact procedure.
Population - patients with/without COVID who got an ultrasound during the pandemic
Intervention - gather qualitative data on their experience getting an ultrasound, this could help develop patient care especially for patients with a virus such as COVID in the future
Comparison - observing the experience of non-COVID patients getting an ultrasound
Outcome - have better patient care
Time - during the peak of infections in the UK

# data[].attributes.body
a study to evaluate a comparison between covid(people) and non covid patients(comparison) experiences with patient care in radiography(intervention) and how it has affected their thoughts on future radiographic examinations(outcome)

# data[].attributes.body
People - patients with a confirmed case of covid-19 but are asymptomatic
Intervention - CXR
Comparison - between patients who have the virus and those who don't but in the wards and could have been in contact with someone who has and may carry the virus
Outcome - look at similarities between those who are asymptomatic and aren't tested to identify early onset of those in the wards currently to be able to isolate them
Time - the peak of infection the UK

# data[].attributes.body
Would an increase in the number of mobile x-ray machines and CXRs (intervention) in the wards, increase the chances of identifying patients (outcome) with COVID-19 symptoms from non- COVID-19 patients (population), compared to the current number of mobile x-ray machines and average number of CXRs produced on the wards(comparison), since cases were first identified in the UK (time).

# data[].attributes.body
patient care (intervention) is impossible to keep at a certain standard (outcome) for confirmed and isolated covid-19 patients (population) compared to outpatients (population) coming in for a normal procedure (comparison) at the peak of infection in the UK (time)

# data[].attributes.body
An audit of a chest x-ray (intervention) on a confirmed covid-19 patient (population) who smokes and has gone through the peak of illness compared to a suspected covid-19 patient who smokes (comparison) to see if it can be predicted how their case will develop and if an intensive care intervention may be required. (outcome)

# data[].attributes.body
An audit of the lung damage seen on CXRs (intervention) of COVID-19 ward patients (population) compared to the COVID-19 patients found in the intensive care units (comparison) since the start of the peak within the UK (Time) to see if you can predict the type of patients who will need intensive care intervention in the future (outcome)

# data[].attributes.body
An audit on the image quality (Outcome) of mobile CXRs (Intervention) on confirmed COVID-19 patients (Population) compared with non-COVID patients (Comparator) since cases were first recorded in the UK (Time)
