Abstract

Objective and Methods Stomach X-rays examinations were carried out to 14hearing-impaired persons using the information presentation system which Showa University and Hitachi Ltd. have developed jointly. Eight hearing-normal persons were compared as control about examination time, fluoroscopy time, and the number of times of entrance into a room. Results Although a hearing-impaired person's examination time and the number of times of entrance into a room became long as compared with a hearing-normal person, a difference was not seen at fluoroscopy time. Conclusions By giving the contents of examination to a hearing-impaired person, and explanation of a procedure in advance, shortening of examination time and reduction of the number of times of entrance into a room are possible, and it was thought by using this system that a hearing-impaired person's mass screening was possible.
