who are exposed to IR daily and it is a serious public health concern that requires urgent attention and action&#46;</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The WHO recommends that all countries adopt and implement the International Basic Safety Standards for Protection against Ionizing Radiation and for the Safety of Radiation Sources&#44;

it is imperative that health care professionals involved in these procedures be aware of the radiation exposure and be provided with the tools necessary to protect and monitor themselves&#46; Preventive measures include using radiation only when the benefits outweigh the risks&#44; restricting access to areas where radiation is used&#44; training workers in safe use of equipment and sources of radiation&#44; organizing regular inspection of medical radiation devices&#44; determining the level of exposure of different occupational groups&#44; monitoring exposure and organizing medical surveillance of exposed workers&#44; encouraging female workers to report if they become pregnant and reallocating them to tasks without radiation exposure&#44; developing standard operating procedures for action in case of accidental exposure&#44; reporting all accidental and planned exposures above the limit&#44; reporting cases of occupational injuries and diseases due to radiation exposure&#44;

Eyewear protection by the first operator &#40;closer to the radiation source&#41;&#44; was only being used &#8220;frequently&#8221; by 49&#46;2&#37;&#44; despite the lens of the eye being one of the most radiosensitive tissues in the body&#44; and there is still considerable uncertainty surrounding the relationship between dose and radiation cataract development&#46; Two-thirds were familiar with the legally established limit radiation dose for workers&#46; Not surprisingly&#44; most of the survey responders had non-certified training in IR procedures and only 32&#46;0&#37; had attended their yearly occupational health consultation&#46; The good news is that most survey responders were concerned about operator &#40;96&#37;&#41;

I must declare that this study has flaws that were properly stated by the authors&#46; It was only sent to registered APIC members&#44; which encompasses a very restricted sample of healthcare workers working in an environment exposed to IR&#46; Electrophysiology&#47;pacing and pediatric cardiology were not considered&#46; As such&#44; the survey findings may not be generalizable to all national Cath Labs or non-APIC members&#46; Nevertheless&#44; it is an important alert on a very important safety issue that deserves attention and would strongly benefit from a newer&#44; broader national survey involving all healthcare workers exposed to IR&#46; It is also important to note that the other studies mentioned in this editorial&#44; also declared similar limitations&#46;</p><span id="sec0005" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0005">Conflicts of interest</span><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The author has no conflicts of interest to declare&#46;</p></span></span>"

Eyewear protection by the first operator &#40;closer to the radiation source&#41;&#44; was only being used &#8220;frequently&#8221; by 49&#46;2&#37;&#44; despite the lens of the eye being one of the most radiosensitive tissues in the body&#44;

I must declare that this study has flaws that were properly stated by the authors&#46; It was only sent to registered APIC members&#44; which encompasses a very restricted sample of healthcare workers working in an environment exposed to IR&#46; Electrophysiology&#47;pacing and pediatric cardiology were not considered&#46; As such&#44; the survey findings may not be generalizable to all national Cath Labs or non-APIC members&#46; Nevertheless&#44; it is an important alert on a very important safety issue that deserves attention and would strongly benefit from a newer&#44; broader national survey involving all healthcare workers exposed to IR&#46; It is also important to note that the other studies mentioned in this editorial&#44; also declared similar limitations&#46;</p><span id="sec0005" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0005">Conflicts of interest</span><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The author has no conflicts of interest to declare&#46;</p></span></span>"
