Abstrakt: Aims: This study sought to investigate patient and operator radiation dose in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and the impact of body mass index (BMI) on patient and operator dose.
Methods: In patients undergoing PCI, radiation dose parameters, baseline characteristics and procedural data were collected in a tertiary centre for 3.5 years. Operators wore real time dosimeters. Patients were grouped by BMI. Dose area product (DAP) and operator radiation dose were compared across patient BMI categories. Multivariable analysis was performed to investigate the impact of patient BMI and other procedural variables on patient and operator dose.
Results: 2,043 patients underwent 2,197 PCI procedures. Each five-unit increase in BMI increased patient dose (expressed as DAP) by an average 31% (95% CI: 29-33%) and operator dose by 27% (95% CI: 20-33%). Patient dose was 2.3 times higher and operator dose was 2.4 times higher in patients with a BMI>40 than for normal BMI patients. Multivariable analysis indicated that there were many procedural factors that were predictors for increasing operator dose and patient dose but that patient BMI was a major contributor for both operator dose and patient dose.
Conclusion: Increasing BMI increases the DAP and operator dose for PCI procedures and BMI is demonstrated to be a major factor that contributes to both patient and operator radiation dose.
