Exoskeleton vs. Standard Lead Apron in EVAR Procedures
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Exoskeleton-supported radiation protection system: An exoskeleton-supported radiation protection system with visor used by the operator during endovascular aortic repair procedures.
Standard lead apron: A standard lead apron used by the operator during endovascular aortic repair procedures.
Study summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether an exoskeleton-supported radiation protection system can reduce radiation exposure and musculoskeletal strain in vascular surgeons during endovascular aortic repair procedures, compared with standard lead aprons. Researchers will compare procedures performed with exoskeleton-supported protection and procedures performed with standard lead aprons. Radiation exposure, physical strain, fatigue, and discomfort will be assessed during and after procedures.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
