Methods/Evidence: The MGUH radiation safety office provided the required hospital-wide computer training module on radiation and the radiation safety training policy. A survey was sent to 55 PACU RN’s with 26 responses. Research articles were analyzed by comparing findings to current practice as well as looking at the level of evidence and strength for each article. Eight articles were chosen from 16 articles that were found using CINAHL, MedLine, and PubMed databases. Those eight articles had levels of evidence ranging from I to VII and strengths from very low to high.
