Introduction: Health professionals, particularly radiologists and imaging scientists are exposed to increased radiological risks. The standards and protocols for radiological protection and biosafety are of great importance since they contribute to avoiding deterministic and/or stochastic effects and contamination. Objective: Determine the level of knowledge and application of the standards of radiological protection, biosafety and possible health risks of undergraduate students who carry out pre-professional practices of the Radiology Career. Material and methods: Descriptive, observational, and cross-sectional study; sample of 58 undergraduate students. The instrument used was: a survey of students and heads of the Radiology service. Statistical analyses were descriptive and Pearson's Chi2 test of independence was used. Results: Students indicate that there are radiation protection standards in Imaging services (82.8%); Its application corresponds to: distance (84.5%), time (70.7%) and shielding (62.1%) and the use of the dosimeter (51.7%). The best knowledge is: types of radiological protection (94.8%), dosimetry (67.2%) and deterministic effects (77.6%); those with the lowest percentage: stochastic effects (60.3%) and whole-body radiation dose limits (43.1%). Risks: direct contact with body fluids (74.1%), use of secondary barriers (70.7%), handling of radiopharmaceuticals (62.1%) and dose rate allowed for Occupationally Exposed Personnel (51.7 %); lower risks: distance (75.9%), time (74.1%), use of primary barriers (65.5%), hand washing (62.1%) and use of the dosimeter (62.1%) Discussion: The knowledge and practice of radiation protection and biosafety standards is partial among students and possible health risks are latent. |

Las normas y protocolos de protección radiológica y bioseguridad son de gran importancia, ya que contribuye a evitar efectos determinísticos y/o estocásticos y de contaminación. Objetivo: Determinar el nivel de conocimiento y aplicación de las normas de protección radiológica, bioseguridad y los posibles riesgos para la salud de los estudiantes de pregrado que realizan las prácticas pre-profesionales de la Carrera de Radiología. Material y métodos: Estudio descriptivo, observacional y transversal; muestra de 58 estudiantes de pregrado. El instrumento utilizado fue: encuesta a estudiantes y jefes de servicio de Radiología. Los análisis estadísticos fueron descriptivos y la prueba de independencia de Chi2 de Pearson. Resultados: Los estudiantes señalan que existen normas de protección radiológica en los servicios de Imagenología (82,8%); su aplicación corresponde a: distancia (84,5%), tiempo (70,7%) y blindaje (62,1%) y el uso del dosímetro (51,7%). Los mejores conocimientos son: tipos de protección radiológica (94,8%), dosimetría (67,2%) y efectos deterministas (77,6%); los que presentan menor porcentaje: efectos estocásticos (60,3%) y los límites de dosis de radiación en cuerpo entero (43,1%). Riesgos: contacto directo con los fluidos corporales (74,1%), uso de las barreras secundarias (70,7%), manejo de radiofármacos (62,1%) e índice de dosis permitido para el Personal Ocupacionalmente Expuestos (51,7%); menores riesgos: distancia (75,9%), tiempo (74,1%), uso de barreras primarias (65,5%), lavado de manos (62,1%) y uso del dosímetro (62,1%) Discusión: El nivel de conocimiento y práctica de normas de protección radiológica y bioseguridad son parciales entre los estudiantes y los posibles riesgos en la salud están latentes.Quito: Universidad Central del Ecuador2023-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtículo evaluado por paresapplication/pdfhttps://revistadigital.uce.edu.ec/index.php/CIENCIAS_MEDICAS/article/view/543910.29166/rfcmq.v48i2.5439Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Médicas (Quito); Vol. 48 No. 2 (2023): Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Médicas (Quito); 16 - 25Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Médicas (Quito); Vol. 48 Núm. 2 (2023): Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Médicas (Quito); 16 - 252737-61412588-0691reponame:Revista Ciencias Médicasinstname:Universidad Central del Ecuadorinstacron:UCEspahttps://revistadigital.uce.edu.ec/index.php/CIENCIAS_MEDICAS/article/view/5439/7010Derechos de autor 2023 TEODORO JOSE MARIA BARROS ASTUDILLOhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-12-15T19:21:10Zoai:revistadigital.uce.edu.ec:article/5439Portal de revistashttps://revistadigital.uce.edu.ec/Universidad públicahttps://uce.edu.ec/**Ecuador*2737-61412588-0691opendoar:*2023-12-15T19:21:10Revista Ciencias Médicas - Universidad Central del Ecuadorfalse |
