Abdominal X-rays (AXRs) are often used as an imaging modality in children who present with abdominal pain with a suspected serious underlying pathology. Nausea, vomiting and constipation that are unresponsive to treatment may also prompt a request for an AXR in a child. Nurses play an important role in ensuring that requests for AXRs in children are appropriate and that the procedure is performed safely. This is the second of two articles on the use of AXRs for diagnosing abdominal pathologies in childhood. The first article focused on AXRs in neonates. This one focuses on AXRs in children, discussing their indications, procedure and interpretation and describing abdominal conditions in children for which an AXR is likely to support diagnosis.
腹部X光检查（AXRs）常用于患有腹痛且疑似存在严重潜在病理状况的儿童。对治疗无反应的恶心、呕吐和便秘也可能促使对儿童进行腹部X光检查。护士在确保儿童腹部X光检查的申请合理且检查过程安全方面发挥着重要作用。这是关于儿童腹部X光检查用于诊断腹部疾病的两篇文章中的第二篇。第一篇文章聚焦于新生儿的腹部X光检查。本文聚焦于儿童的腹部X光检查，讨论其适应症、检查程序和解读，并描述可能通过腹部X光检查支持诊断的儿童腹部疾病。
