Based on a systematic review and meta-analysis of 8 studies, involving 2,559 subjects, both interventional cardiologists (3.21) and cardiac cath lab staff (2.76) had a significantly higher relative risk of posterior lens opacity than the control group. It is essential to provide "best practice" in radiation dose management and lead shielding in the cath lab with the standard "As Low As Reasonably Achievable"! There is a clear need for better data to quantitate the radiation risk and to design innovative strategies to decrease that risk.
基于对8项研究的系统评价和荟萃分析,涉及2559名受试者,介入心脏病专家(3.21)和心导管室工作人员(2.76)发生后囊混浊的相对风险均显著高于对照组。在导管室按照“合理可行尽量低”的标准提供辐射剂量管理和铅屏蔽方面的“最佳实践”至关重要!显然需要更好的数据来量化辐射风险并设计创新策略以降低该风险。
