A recent study published in the Journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions has found that the EggNest™ Complete radiation shielding system is significantly more effective at protecting all personnel in catheterization labs from scatter radiation compared to other systems, including the Rampart IC. While both systems reduced exposure for the primary operator and assistant, the EggNest™ Complete provided additional protection for nursing staff and others, highlighting its importance in health safety. This research underscores the need for comprehensive shielding to safeguard healthcare professionals during interventional cardiology procedures, where radiation exposure is a significant risk. The study's authors emphasize that adopting such systems is crucial for the safety of the entire medical team.
