Although the cleanliness of the angiography room and that of the operating room have long been equally attended to, the concept of Standard Precautions (including the basic measures and procedures to prevent infection) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1996, as well as the introduction of transmission-based precautions, have been changing to preventive measures that are based on concrete measures. Therefore, a questionnaire was introduced in order to determine the actual status of countermeasures against infection used in the angiography room. The questionnaire was sent to 530 institutions, and 286 responded, a response rate of 54.0%. Its results significantly reveled the following: 1) unexpectedly low recognition of the need and importance for the CDC preventive measures against infection, 2) a considerable number of institutions continuing to perform the conventional preventive measures, 3) problems with education systems on preventive measures, and 4) handwashing, the most important measure against infection, failing to be adequately carried out noticeably among radiological technologists.
