Effectiveness of using protective devices to reduce radiation levels in operating room personnel
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2017-07-22) Montoya Gutierrez, Glendy; Viena Saavedra, Romina Paola; Gómez Gonzales, Walter Edgar
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of using protective gear to reduce radiation levels among operating room staff. Materials and Methods: This is a systematic review of 9 articles, no older than 10 years, from descriptive, prospective, and randomized trial designs. The search was restricted to full-text articles, and the selected studies underwent critical reading, using the GRADE system to assign the strength of recommendations. Results: Of the articles analyzed, 90% (8/9) confirm the effectiveness of using protective gear such as aprons, hats, collars, and lead glasses to reduce radiation levels among operating room staff during interventional surgeries. Of these, 60% (4/9) demonstrated the effective use of hats, and 40% (2/9) demonstrated the effectiveness of lead glasses as essential protective gear to reduce radiation. Conclusions: Protective gear is effective in reducing radiation levels among operating room staff during interventional surgeries.
