Title	Louisiana Agreement State Report - Personnel Annual Overexposure
Event Description	Received the following information from the State of Louisiana via facsimile: The licensee, Louisiana Heart Hospital in LaCome, LA., submitted a High Exposure Report to the State concerning one of their physicians. The physician's exposure by badge was 5,244 mrem for the 2007 calendar year. The cause of the overexposure was attributed to high workloads in the Cardiac Catherization Labs during the period. Corrective actions taken include double badging the individual, including the addition of a waist badge beneath his lead apron, using additional shielding/distance and using special equipment such as pull-down lead shields. Additionally, the licensee will review the individual's exposure quarterly to adjust workload and/or corrective actions.
