Abstract

Interventional cardiology procedures can generate high doses of ionizing radiation and delayed skin reactions in patients undergoing complex procedures with a substantial radiation dose level. Since 2014, we have implemented, in the cath lab, the monitoring of patients undergoing procedures with a substantial radiation dose level, to identify these patients and provide patient care support. We present two case reports of such patients, who are undergoing dermatological treatment. The implemented protocol provided specialized treatment for the patients and awareness of radiation safety among health workers.
