Radiation Exposure Among Scrub Technologists and Nurse Circulators During Cardiac Catheterization
Abstract
This study was performed to determine if the use of an accessory lead shield is associated with a reduction in radiation exposure among staff members during cardiac catheterization. Accessory lead shields that protect physicians from scatter radiation are standard in many catheterization laboratories, yet similar shielding for staff members is not commonplace. Real-time radiation exposure data were prospectively collected among nurses and...
