This document is a consensus statement by the major American societies of physicians who work in the interventional laboratory environment. It reviews available data on the prevalence of occupational health risks and summarizes ongoing epidemiologic studies designed to further elucidate these risks. Its purpose is to affirm that the interventional laboratory poses workplace hazards that must be acknowledged, better understood, and mitigated to the greatest extent possible. Vigorous efforts are advocated to reduce these hazards. Interventional physicians and their professional societies, working together with industry, should strive toward minimizing operator radiation exposure, eliminating the need for personal protective apparel, and ending the orthopedic and ergonomic consequences of the interventional laboratory work environment.
本文档是美国主要在介入实验室环境工作的医师协会的一份共识声明。它回顾了关于职业健康风险患病率的现有数据，并总结了旨在进一步阐明这些风险的正在进行的流行病学研究。其目的是确认介入实验室存在必须得到承认、更好理解并尽可能减轻的工作场所危害。提倡大力努力减少这些危害。介入医师及其专业协会应与行业合作，努力将操作人员的辐射暴露降至最低，消除对个人防护服装的需求，并消除介入实验室工作环境带来的骨科和人体工程学后果。
