Description | ||||||
This study assesses the awareness of radiation protection among healthcare workers operating in radiation environments at selected hospitals in Yangon. A crosssectional study is conducted with 135 healthcare workers from five private hospitals and two Defence Services General Hospitals across various radiation application departments. Key findings show that most respondents have a high level of awareness, while the rest have a moderate level, with none displaying poor awareness. However, there are notable gaps in understanding radiation protection principles, differentiating between stochastic and deterministic effects, and recognizing the significance of dose in assessing radiation severity. The analysis of respondents' compliance with radiation protection practices reveals general adherence but identifies significant inconsistencies, underscoring the need for targeted education on the importance of these safety measures. By addressing these gaps and strengthening support systems, healthcare facilities can enhance radiation safety practices and ensure better protection for healthcare workers exposed to radiation. Continuous education through periodic training, updated guidelines, and accessible protective resources is essential for promoting safety and mitigating risks associated with radiation exposure. |
