RESUMEN
Objective To assess and evaluate attitudes and knowledge regarding ionizing radiation of urology surgery room staff. Methods A questionnaire was sent to urology surgery room personnel of 4 comprehensive hospitals in Changchun from September to October in 2016. The questionnaire included demographic questions and questions regarding radiation exposure and protection. Results In total,127 questionnaires were answered.Of them, 48.8%(62/127)were nurses,40.2%(51/127)were doctors,and 11.0%(14/127)were radiological technicians.In total,44.1%(56/127)had received specific education or training regarding the harmful effects of radiation; 89.0%(113/127)participants had some knowledge of radiation;72.4%(92/127)used lead apron and collar.For the use of radiation dose disc by radiographers, the rate was 14/14,the using rate by nurses was 33.9%(21/62),the using rate by doctors was 25.5%(13/51), the difference was statistically significant (χ2=26.732, P < 0.01); the using rate of lead screen by radiographers was 11/14, 43.5% (27/62) by nurses, and 19.6% (10/51) by doctors, the difference was statistically significant(χ2=17.949,P<0.01);10/14 technicians used the remote operating system,23.5% (12/51) doctors used a remote operating system,and 6.5%(4/62)for nurses,the difference was statistically significant (χ2=30.106, P < 0.01). Conclusions The awareness and protective measures of urology surgery room personnel about the ionizing radiation are not sufficient.However,the training,the cognition and protection ability of ionizing radiation of technical personnel are better than those of nurses and doctors. The training of ionizing radiation should be strengthened to improve the awareness of ionizing radiation among the operation room staff.
RESUMEN
With the development in the diagnosis and treatment of urological diseases and im-provement of minimally invasive technology in recent years, some apparent diseases and concepts of new technology can't be mentioned in teaching practice including functional diseases of lower urinary tract, further discussion of prostatic cancer and minimally invasive technology, etc. We elaborated on the importances, teaching significances and key points of these teaching contents in order to improve the knowledge teaching system.
