Abstract

Recently, both the number and the complexity with associated increased technical difficulty of therapeutic ERCP procedures have significantly increased resulting in longer procedural and fluoroscopy times. During ERCP, the patient is exposed to ionizing radiation and the consequent radiation dose depends on multiple factors. The aim of this study was to identify factors affecting fluoroscopy time and radiation dose in patients undergoing ERCP. Data related to patient demographics, procedural characteristics and radiation exposure in ERCP procedures (n = 638) performed between August 2013 and August 2015 was retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. Statistically significant factors identified by univariate analyses were included in multivariate analysis with fluoroscopy time (FT) and dose area product (DAP) as dependent variables. Effective dose (ED) was estimated from DAP measurements using conversion coefficient. The factors independently associated with increased DAP during ERCP were age, gender, radiographer, complexity level of ERCP, cannulation difficulty grade, bile duct injury and biliary stent placement. In multivariate analysis the endoscopist, the complexity level of ERCP, cannulation difficulty grade, pancreatic duct l...Continue Reading
