Zusammenfassung: | We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of radiation dose reduction with a new-generation biplane angiocardiography system in patients undergoing transcatheter isolated patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) closure.
Fifty pediatric patients who underwent transcatheter PDA closure were randomly divided into two groups as normal radiation dose and low dose. Patients who required additional procedures other than PDA closure were excluded. PDA closure was performed according to the angiographic measurement of the defect. After the procedure, age, weight, sex, PDA measurements, and radiation measurements such as dose-area product (DAP, Gy.cm2) and air kerma (AK, mGy) were compared between the groups.
There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in age, sex, weight, PDA diameter, PDA type, device used, and device diameter (p > 0.05). While there was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of cine recording, number of recorded images, and fluoroscopy time (p > 0.05), there was a statistically significant difference between the total DAP, cine and fluoroscopy DAP, total AK, frontal and lateral tube AK, and DAP/kg (mGy.m2/kg) measurements (p |
