X-ray exposure during radiologically guided interventional procedures may have some deleterious effects. The aim of our study was to analyse the factors affecting patient dose during percutaneous coronary angioplasty (PTCA). We evaluated radiation dose during coronary angiography followed by one-vessel PTCA in 402 consecutive patients who were treated by three experienced physicians using both femoral and radial techniques. Fluoroscopy time (t) and patient dose measured by a dose-area product (DAP) meter were recorded. A good correlation was observed between t and the DAP (r=0.78, p<0.001). To assess the factors affecting radiation exposure, we studied the differences between operators, arterial catheterization access and stenting strategy. Median (25th to 75th percentiles) values for t were 19 (13 to 26) min and for DAP were 191 (145 to 256) Gy cm(2) for operator 3 compared with t=12 (9 to 18) min and DAP=137 (91 to 208) Gy cm(2) for operator 2 (p<0.005 versus operator 3) and t=13 (9 to 17) min, and DAP=134 (93 to 190) Gy cm(2) for operator 1 (p<0.001 versus operator 3). Differences between the radial and the femoral techniques were: t=17 (13 to 24) min versus 12 (8 to 17) min, (p<0.001) and DAP=175 (128 to 246) Gy cm(2) versus 138 (93 to 197) Gy cm(2), (p<0.001). In comparison with stenting without pre-dilation, direct stenting significantly reduced t and DAP [t=12 (9 to 16) min versus 16 (11 to 22) min, (p<0.001) and DAP=130 (95 to 186) Gy cm(2) versus 163 (119 to 230) Gy cm(2), respectively, (p<0.01)]. Radiation exposure to patients and staff are strongly dependent on operators, stenting strategy and the arterial access chosen for ad hoc one-vessel PTCA.
