We have made new instructions with onomatopoeic sounds and their own signs in order to improve the accuracy of the upper gastrointestinal study, and compared these new instructions with the conventional ones. After the examinations, we asked the patients to fill out a questionnaire regarding how they felt about the new instructions. In the esophagus X-ray fluoroscopy, the number of patients who took the proper amount of Barium meal showed a rate of increase of 31.6 percent compared to the conventional method. For the patients' movements in the right rotation direction, the number of the patients showed a rate of increase of 18.2 percent using the oral instructions with onomatopoeic sounds, and 25.0 percent using the oral instruction with onomatopoeic sounds and signs. From the results of the questionnaire, 87.6 percent of the patients answered that the signs were "Effective" or "Very Effective." Including the answer "Doesn't Matter," the sign instructions being useful increased to 94.8 percent of the patients. Ninety-four point eight percent of the patients answered that the oral instructions during this X-ray examination were "Easy To Understand" or "Very Easy To Understand." With these results, I believe we should give the oral instructions using onomatopoeic sounds and signs.
