The use of ionizing radiation in various sciences, especially in medical science, has played an important role in human health. As the use of radiology tests in medical centers, including the operating room ward, is increasing, increasing the level of awareness of the operating room staff can improve their performance in this area as well as reduce the risk of exposure to radiation. The aim of this study was to determine the knowledge and performance of surgical technologists about radiation protection in Zahedan educational hospitals.
The present study is a descriptive-analytical study that was performed on 80 surgical technologists of Zahedan teaching hospitals from January 2019 to December 2019. The Knowledge Questionnaire was used in this study, which was a researcher-made questionnaire. After filling out questionnaires and checklists, the data were analyzed by SPSS software using descriptive statistics and analytical, statistical tests, including independent -test and Pearson correlation coefficient.
The results showed that the mean age of participants was 31 ± 7.03 years . 27% were men, and 53% were women. The mean of work experience was 7 ± 7.56. The mean score of knowledge was 6 ± 3.02 and the performance score was 12 ± 7.38. There was a correlation between age, awareness and performance of the participants ( < 0.001), and there was a correlation between participants' radiation protection training and awareness and performance ( = 0.000). There is a direct relationship between staff knowledge and performance. No significant relationship was found between the other variables ( = 0.029).
The results of the study showed that there is a relationship between radiation protection training courses so that the personnel who passed these courses are more aware and functioning. Given that action is needed to raise awareness through workshops.
电离辐射在各个科学领域，尤其是医学领域的应用，对人类健康发挥了重要作用。随着包括手术室病房在内的医疗中心放射检查的使用日益增加，提高手术室工作人员的认识水平可以改善他们在这方面的表现，并降低辐射暴露风险。本研究的目的是确定扎赫丹教学医院外科技术人员在辐射防护方面的知识和表现。
本研究是一项描述性分析研究，于2019年1月至2019年12月对扎赫丹教学医院的80名外科技术人员进行。本研究使用了知识问卷，这是一份由研究人员制作的问卷。填写完问卷和清单后，使用SPSS软件对数据进行描述性统计分析以及分析性统计检验，包括独立样本t检验和皮尔逊相关系数。
结果显示，参与者的平均年龄为31±7.03岁。27%为男性，53%为女性。平均工作经验为7±7.56年。知识平均得分为6±3.02分，表现得分为12±7.38分。参与者的年龄、意识和表现之间存在相关性（P<0.001），参与者的辐射防护培训与意识和表现之间存在相关性（P = 0.000）。工作人员的知识与表现之间存在直接关系。未发现其他变量之间存在显著关系（P = 0.029）。
研究结果表明，辐射防护培训课程之间存在关联，即通过这些课程的人员更有意识且表现更佳。鉴于需要通过研讨会来提高认识。
