Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Rampart M1128 IC, OnlyExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Consented providers will perform catherization procedures utilizing only the Rampart system. Radiation will be measured by dosimeters worn by the providers.
Group II: Lead Apron + Rampart IC, M1128Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Consented providers will perform catherization procedures utilizing both lead apron and Rampart system. Radiation will be measured by dosimeters worn by the providers.
Group III: Lead Apron OnlyActive Control1 Intervention
This is the control group. Consented providers will perform catherization procedures utilizing only the lead apron and ancillary shields (lead skirt, vest, thyroid collar (all at least 0.5mm Pb) with use of under table lead per lab operating policy and mobile suspended lead-acrylic shield and lead glasses). Radiation will be measured by dosimeters worn by the providers.
