Abstract:
Objective To track and evaluate the implementation of the Radiation Shielding Requirements in Room of Radiotherapy Installations—Part 1: General Principle (GBZ/T 201.1–2007) among relevant personnel in medical radiation institutions, and to provide a scientific basis for revising the standard. Methods According to the Guidelines for Health Standards Tracking Evaluation (WS/T 536–2017) and the implementation protocol of standard evaluation, an online survey was conducted among 212 relevant workers from 146 medical radiation institutions across 18 provinces in China. The data were aggregated and analyzed with the use of Microsoft Excel 2010. Results A total of 215 questionnaires were returned, of which 212 were valid. Among the valid respondents, 77.8% believe that this standard is universally applied; 96.2% believe that this standard can meet work needs; 63.7% have participated in relevant training on this standard; 74.1% use this standard once or more per year; and 10.8% believe that this standard needs to be revised. Conclusion Medial radiation workers have a high rate of awareness of the basic information and content of the standard, but the understanding and application of the standard content need to be improved. We recommend that relevant departments further strengthen the promotion of and training on the standard, revise some content based on actual situation, and improve workers’ ability to use the standard.
