Analysis of radiation dose to patients during coronary angiography and intracoronary stenting using radial and femoral artery access / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the radiation dose to patients using radial and femoral artery access in coronary angiography (CAG) and intracoronary stenting (IS) ,provide basis for clinical intervention path .Methods The data of 190 samples (43 by femo-ral and 147 by radial) underwent CAG and 54 samples (17 by femoral and 37 by radial) underwent CAG+IS were analyzed retro-spectively .All samples were divided into two groups (radial group and femoral group) by different approach ,and radiation dose in different approach were analyzed .Results There was no significant difference of Dose Area Product (DAP) and Cumulative Dose (CD) using femoral and radial access in CAG (P>0 .05) .Separating two samples which CD were much higher than others ,the mean DAP was 23 .93 Gy · cm2 and the mean CD was 358 .85 mGy using radial vs .27 .06 Gy · cm2 and 369 .57 mGy using femoral , not distinctive either(P=0 .734 ,P=0 .834) .In CAG+IS ,the mean DAP was 82 .64 Gy · cm2 using radial and it was 78 .11 Gy · cm2 using femoral ,and the mean CD was 1 286 .41 mGy using radial and it was 1 267 .76 mGy using femoral .There were no signifi-cant difference in both DAP and CD (P=0 .705 ,P= 0 .919) .Conclusion The radiation dose of DAP and CD were not different when using radial access and using femoral access in CAG and CAG +IS .
