Abstract

Purpose of review: In this review, we discuss the status of novel radiation shielding and other methods to reduce radiation exposure and its associated health risks within the CCL.

Recent findings: There are many devices on the market each with its unique advantages and inherent flaws. Several are available for widespread use with promising data, while others still in development. The field of percutaneous transcatheter interventions includes complex procedures often involving significant radiation exposure. Increased radiation exposes the proceduralist and CCL staff to potential harm from both direct effects of radiation but also from the ergonomic consequences of daily use of heavy personal protective equipment. Here we discuss several innovative efforts to reduce both radiation exposure and orthopedic injury within the CCL that are available, leading to a safer daily routine in a "lead [apron]-free" environment.

实施 "无导联[围裙]"心导管检查：现状。

审查目的：在这篇综述中，我们讨论了新型辐射屏蔽和其他方法的现状，以减少 CCL 内的辐照及其相关健康风险：市场上有许多设备，每种设备都有其独特的优点和固有的缺陷。有几种设备已被广泛使用，并取得了可喜的数据，而其他设备仍在开发中。经皮经导管介入治疗领域包括复杂的程序，通常涉及大量辐射暴露。辐射的增加会使手术医师和 CCL 工作人员受到辐射的直接影响以及日常使用重型个人防护设备造成的人体工程学后果的潜在伤害。在此，我们将讨论几项创新措施，以减少 CCL 内的辐射照射和骨科损伤，从而在 "无铅[围裙]"环境中实现更安全的日常工作。
