Musculoskeletal disorders in interventional radiology workers: an integrative review.
Revista Brasileira de Medicina do Trabalho(2023)
Abstract
This integrative review analyzed scientific production on musculoskeletal disorders related to personal protective equipment used by interventional radiology teams. The PubMed, Embase, and SciELO databases were searched using a strategy developed with the help of a librarian. The double-blind selection process involved the Rayyan online tool. A total of 12 articles were included, which were organized according to year of publication, country research subjects, study type, and main outcomes. Five thematic categories emerged from the analysis: "personal protective equipment"; "ergonomics in the interventional radiology environment"; "the composition of personal protective equipment"; "radiation protection for interventional teams" and "the prevalence of musculoskeletal symptoms in interventional teams". Outcomes associated with musculoskeletal disorders among interventional teams predominated in the studies, and advances in radiological protection were reported, especially in shielding technologies, as well as continuing efforts toward more ergonomic protective equipment to reduce the risk of musculoskeletal disorders.
