P168 The use of a mobile radiation protection module every day in an interventional neuroradiology room: a study at toulouse university hospital

<h3>Introduction</h3> After successfully reducing patient exposure and associated deterministic risks in interventional neuroradiology, the new challenge lies in mitigating stochastic radiation-induced risks for medical and paramedical staff while enhancing workplace quality of life. <h3>Aim of Study</h3> Our study, conducted at the University Hospital of Toulouse, aims to primarily reduce this exposure while safeguarding against musculoskeletal disorders through the implementation of a lead-lined cabin prototype as collective protection equipment. <h3>Methods</h3> The cabin study unfolds in two stages: an initial month-long measurement campaign integrates the cabin into daily service, followed by a second campaign using standard protections without the cabin. Four positions are examined: primary interventional neuroradiologist (INR), assistant INR, surgical assistant, and circulating radiology technologist. For exposure measurements in both campaigns: - Each of the 4 operators wears 6 TLD-100 dosimeters and 2 operational dosimeters to assess their exposure at various points. - 5 strategically placed TLD-100 dosimeters evaluate the cabin’s attenuation capability. A satisfaction survey is conducted among workers involved in the study to gather feedback on cabin usage compared to their usual protective measures. <h3>Results</h3> The study results are pending due to the study dates (April 9 to June 9) and will be presented at the ETMINT 2024 congress. <h3>Conclusion</h3> The study hopes to optimize the radiation protection of workers in interventional neuroradiology at Toulouse University Hospital while improving their quality of life at work by reducing or even eliminating the wearing of leaded aprons daily. <h3>Disclosure of Interest</h3> no.
