Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The difference in radiation exposure to the care team using a Raysafe i3 dosimeter badge. | Intraprocedural | The difference in radiation exposure to the care team using a Raysafe i3 dosimeter badge. The two methods being compared are traditional lead aprons and shields and the RAMPART IC System (Guardian, Bunker, Shadow, and Sentry) with optional lead aprons in peripheral cases. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The difference in radiation exposure to the care team on a per body segment analysis using a Raysafe i3 dosimeter badge. | Intraprocedural | The secondary endpoint will be to compare radiation exposure on a per body segment analysis on the care team using a Raysafe i3 dosimeter badge. The investigators will compare traditional lead aprons and ancillary shields to the RAMPART IC System with optional lead aprons. |
