摘要
目的据信放射设备中使用的电离辐射会影响放射科员工的身体组织。本研究旨在比较长期暴露于 X 射线对苏莱曼尼市/库尔德斯坦地区政府多家医院放射科员工血细胞的影响。方法本横断面研究于 2021 年至 2022 年期间进行,对象为库尔德斯坦地区政府苏莱曼尼市各医院放射科的 250 名员工,包括放射科医生、放射技师以及医生或护士等其他医务人员。在征得口头同意后,由参与者填写问卷收集数据。从 250 名放射科工作人员处采集了血液样本,并送往实验室测量血液参数。收集到的数据用 SPSS 26 版软件进行分析,并通过描述性统计检验、学生 t 检验和方差分析研究数据之间的关系。两性之间在 RBC、HCT%、MCV 和 PCT 血液参数上存在明显的统计学差异。结论RDW-CV和RDW-SD等血液参数受工作类型和X射线照射时间的影响。
Effects of long-term X-ray exposure on CBC among radiological department staff in Sulaimani city
Objectives
Ionizing rays used in radiology devices are believed to affect the body tissues of radiology department employees. This study was aimed at comparing the effects of long-term exposure to X-rays on the blood cells of staff working in the radiology departments of several hospitals in the Sulaimani City/Kurdistan region government.
Methods
This cross-sectional study was conducted from 2021 to 2022 on 250 employees—including radiologists, radiographers, and other medical staff such as physicians or nurses—in the radiology departments of hospitals in the city of Sulaimani, Kurdistan region government. Data were collected with a questionnaire completed by the participants after verbal consent was provided. Blood samples were collected from 250 radiology staff and sent to a laboratory for measurement of blood parameters. The collected data were analyzed in SPSS version 26 software, and relationships in the data were investigated with descriptive statistical tests, Student's t test, and ANOVA.
Results
Most male participants were radiographers with a diploma degree. A statistically significant difference in RBC, HCT %, MCV, and PCT blood parameters was observed between sexes. Moreover, statistically significant differences were observed in RDW-CV and RDW-SD between occupational groups; in mean WBC and lymphocytes among staff who were current, never, or former smokers; and in mean WBC among employees who were current, never, or former drinkers (p < 0.01).
Conclusion
Blood parameters such as RDW-CV and RDW-SD were concluded to be affected by job type and X-ray exposure duration.
