Background.
Bedside radiological procedures pose a risk of radiation exposure to ICU staff.
The perception of risk may increase the degree of caution among the health care staff and raise new barriers preventing patients from obtaining prompt care.
Objective.
The aim of this study was to estimate the annual cumulative radiation dose to individual ICU staff.
Methods.
In this prospective study, forty subjects were required to wear thermoluminescent dosimeter badges during their working hours.
The badges were analyzed to determine the exposure after 3 months.
Results.
A total of 802 radiological procedures were completed at bedside during the study period.
The estimated annual dosage to doctors and nurses on average was 0.99 mSv and 0.88 mSv ( p < 0.001 ), respectively.
Residents were subjected to the highest radiation exposure (1.04 mSv per year, p = 0.002 ).
The radiation dose was correlated with day shift working hours ( r = 0.426 ; p = 0.006 ) and length of service ( r = - 0.403 ; p < 0.01 ).
Conclusions.
With standard precautions, bedside radiological procedures—including portable CT scans—do not expose ICU staff to high dose of ionizing radiation.
The level of radiation exposure is related to the daytime working hours and length of service.
