Abstract:
This paper analyzes the current situation of radiological protection in the operating room of medical institutions, and puts forward some countermeasures for existing defects in the current situation. Questionnaire was issued to the operating rooms of several medical institutions that carried out intraoperative radiation and the actual status of intraoperative radiological protection was obtained. According to results, in the operation rooms of 21 medical institutions, there were 24 mobile radiology equipment in 19 medical institutions operating rooms and 14 radiological protective clothing in the operating rooms of the medical institutions. Only 7.37% of nursing staffs were identified as wearing protective clothing during operation, 28.42% of nurses did not wear protective clothing during operation, and more than 60% of nurses did not wear protective clothing while performing radiological operations, and left the operating room or stood behind the protective screen to avoid the radiation. Nurses in all operating rooms surveyed have not received any professional training in radiological protection. Therefore, Intraoperative radiological protection facilities in medical institutions are equipped and used more freely. The lack of specific knowledge of operatives and improper protection methods should be paid more attention and improvement.
