This paper provides an overview of radiation exposure and its associated risks in the cardiac catheterisation laboratory (cath lab), as well as strategies to minimise radiation exposure for operators, cath lab staff and patients. The benefits of using a mobile 2 mm lead equivalent radiation shield (PISAX) and adoption of an automated contrast injection system (the ACIST CVi® Contrast Delivery System) are discussed, and the potential advantages of their combination are reviewed.
本文概述了心导管实验室(导管室)中的辐射暴露及其相关风险,以及将操作人员、导管室工作人员和患者的辐射暴露降至最低的策略。文中讨论了使用等效铅厚度为2毫米的移动辐射防护屏(PISAX)和采用自动造影剂注射系统(ACIST CVi®造影剂输送系统)的益处,并对二者联合使用的潜在优势进行了综述。
