Most fluoroscopy safety talk is about radiation. Posture is the hidden hazard.

Clinicians spent over 50% of procedure time in medium-to-high-risk postures. Lead aprons protect from radiation and add to the strain.

Ergonomic strain & radiation safety are the same problem.

That’s a wrap on #HRS2026 👏

We unveiled a first look at our Pacer™ Kit (coming soon) — designed for #EP procedures with a focus on efficiency, streamlined access, and uncompromised protection for the entire team.

Appreciate everyone who stopped by — more to come 👀

About 60% of interventional radiology workers develop musculoskeletal disorders from fixed positions, repetitive movements, and the cumulative load of PPE worn over long careers.
Radiation safety and ergonomic injury are connected. The path forward builds on what works.

The future of EP is bright ⚡️

Incredible showing by the WMC EP Fellows and @WMCCardsFellows at #HRS2026. Presenting several abstracts, learning, contributing, and leading!

Great night celebrating this crew 🍽️

New study from China: only 27.8% of OR personnel routinely used PPE during radiation exposure. 87.4% cited insufficient knowledge as the reason. Similar gaps are documented worldwide. Training & Education work. https://t.co/2Cujv152ce

Nurses and techs are the backbone of every procedure, but also among the most consistently exposed to scatter radiation.
Prioritizing radiation safety isn’t optional, it’s essential to protect careers, health, and the future of our workforce.

Cath lab safety = more than just operator protection

📊 Staff face ⬆️ rates of msk injury
📊 Many leave the field due to inability to wear lead
📊 Workforce shortages are already critical
