Objective@#To survey the current situation of wearing protective articles by accompanying examiners in the nursing conditions of intervention and non-intervention during CT diagnosis in a tertiary A hospital.@*Methods@#A control group and an intervention group were set up to investigate the situation of wearing protective devices. Attempt was made to use mobile lead screens in place of personal protective devices and their effects were investigated.@*Results@#A total of 4 890 unavoidable accompanying examiners wearing protective equipment during CT examination were investigated. After nursing guidance, the wearing rate increased from 73% to 94%, and the complete wearing rate increased from 19% to 81%. Refusal to wear protective devices was mostly due to limited time. Refusal rate of emergency accompanying examiners was significantly higher than that of outpatient and inpatient accompanying examiners. After using mobile lead screen, the probability of personnel protection increased to 99%.@*Conclusions@#Nursing intervention can effectively improve the wearing rate and complete wearing rate of protective articles for accompanying examiners. Moving glass lead screen is conducive to the improvement of protection level for accompanying examiners..
