Previous studies have documented that orthopedic injuries and musculoskeletal pain are a likely result of wearing heavy leaded aprons. This single-center, randomized 1-3 month clinical study compares conventional lead aprons and ancillary shields to the Rampart IC, M1128 radiation protection system in order to improve radiation safety with minimal orthopedic strain by using the RAMPART device. There will be three study arms, each arm requiring 21 procedures for a total of 63 total procedures, Each procedure will be randomized, instead of individual subjects. Each enrolled subject may be involved in more than one procedure/case. Randomization stratification will be 1:1:1 to either Rampart shield only, lead apron and ancillary shield, or lead apron and Rampart Shield. Real-time dosimeters will be used in each procedure to measure radiation attenuation.
