RAMPART - Testimonial - Dr. William "Bill" Lombardi, Interventional Cardiologist

"...not only did I want to make it so that I don’t have to wear lead- I also wanted to make it so my staff didn’t have to wear lead. And I wanted to be able to continue to do my job in the easiest orthopedic way I could..."

Dr. William “Bill” Lombardi, Interventional Cardiologist and adviser to Rampart, recently sat down to talk about the necessity of better protecting all medical professionals who operate in radiation exposure environments.

The heavy, protective lead required to be worn by physicians and their teams during CTO, PCI and other interventional procedures comes up short in two ways. First- the worn lead can leave openings for exposure. And second- the prolonged bearing of the extra lead weight on the body has been shown to lead to advanced orthopedic damage and fatigue.

In the video, Dr. Lombardi speaks to this and about what lead him to Rampart. Please find a transcription of his testimonial here: https://www.rampartic.com/news/2022/7...
