Abstract
Aims:
- To determine the dose of radiation received by radiation workers at the Radiology Facility of Bali Mandara Hospital based on differences in work professions,
- Knowing the suitability of the amount of radiation dose received by radiation workers is still within the limits determined by BAPETEN
- To find out the difference in receiving external radiation doses to the radiation worker profession at Bali Mandara Hospital.
Place and Duration of Study: Radiology Facility at Bali Mandara Hospital, between August 2022 and October 2022.
Methodology: Using quartile value determination and statistical tests, namely the one sample t-test and manova test.
Results: The data used is radiation dose data that has been measured/read by Surabaya Health Facilities Security Center in the 2018-2021 period. First quartile value (, second quartile ( and third quartile ( for the profession of Doctor Sp.Rad. of 0.149 mSv, 0.191 mSv and 0.211 mSv, Radiographer profession of 0.169 mSv, 0.184 mSv and 0.198 mSv, Nursing profession of 0.167 mSv, 0.185 mSv and 0.195 mSv, Medical Physicist profession of 0.148 mSv, 0.185 mSv and 0.196 istrative Personnel profession of 0.091 mSv, 0.181 mSv and 0.209 mSv. From the results of the statistical test, namely the t-test, decision-making was obtained, namely there was no difference between the radiation dose received by radiation workers and the NBD that had been determined by BAPETEN.
Conclusion: In this study, it was known that the radiation dose received by radiation workers based on professional differences was still within the dose limit value set by BAPETEN.
