Reduction of radiation exposure to operating physician and assistant using a real-time auditory feedback dosimeter during femoral artery puncturing: a study on swine model.
Article in European radiology experimental, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundReal-time dosimeters may create a relatively safer environment not only for the patient but also for the physician and the assistant as well. We propose the use of a real-time radiation measurement dosimeter having auditory feedback to reduce radiation exposure.
methodsRadiation dose rates were measured for 30 fluoroscopy-guided puncturing procedures of femoral arteries in swine. Fifteen puncturing procedures were performed with real-time radiation measurement dosimeter having auditory feedback and other 15 were performed without auditory feedback dosimeter by an interventional cardiologist with 10 years of experience.
resultsThe left body side of the operating physician (38%, p < 0.001) and assistant (25%, p < 0.001) was more exposed as compared to the right body side. Radiation dose rate to the left hand, left arm and left leg were reduced from 0.96 ± 0.10 to 0.79 ± 0.12 mSv/h (17% reduction, p < 0.001), from 0.11 ± 0.02 to 0.07 ± 0.01 mSv/h (36% reduction, p < 0.001) and from 0.22 ± 0.06 to 0.15 ± 0.02 mSv/h (31% reduction, p < 0.001) with the use of auditory feedback dosimeter, respectively. The mean fluoroscopic time was reduced from 4.8 ± 0.43 min to 4.2 ± 0.53 min (p < 0.001). The success rate of performing arterial puncturing was 100%.
conclusionsThe use of auditory feedback dosimeter resulted in reduction in effective dose. The sound beep alerted the physician from the danger of exposure, and this approach induced awareness and protective mindset to the operating physician and assistant.
