Clinical trials: Occupational Radiation Exposure
Occupational Exposure to Radiation
Radioprotective Light-weight Caps in the Interventional Cardiology Setting
The primary objective of the present trial is to compare the radiation attenuation provided by XPF caps (0.5mm lead-equivalent and 0.3mm lead-equivalent) to the standard protection (fabric cap, basically no protection) as…

Radiation Exposure to Operator
Physician Radiation Exposure During Radial Access Cardiac Catheterization Using a RAD Board
Radiation exposure to operator is an occupational hazard of invasive cardiologists. During radial access for diagnostic catheterization, a new radio-dense arm board is advertised to reduce operator radiation exposure.

- NCT02088788
- Testing
- Board, No Board
- Where
- United States
- Volunteers
- 265 people
