Interventional Cardiology IMPACT OF PATIENT BODY MASS INDEX ON NURSE RADIATION DOSE DURING CORONARY ANGIOGRAPHY Poster Contributions Poster Hall, Hall A/B Saturday, March 10, 2018, 10:00 a.m.-10:45 a.m. Session Title: Complex Patients and Comorbidities: PCI Outcomes Abstract Category: 19. Interventional Cardiology: Complex Patients/Comorbidities Presentation Number: 1111-233 Authors: Lahdan Refahiyat, Austin Clarey, Jacob Bundy, Edwin Mandieka, David Benavides, Thomas Crane, Sheetal Maragiri, Erica Osip, Emily Pardington, Abbey Mulder, Taylor Ten Brock, Jessica Parker, Stacie VanOosterhout, Ryan Madder, Spectrum Health, Grand Rapids, MI, USA Background: Increasing patient body mass index (BMI) results in greater scatter radiation during fluoroscopy, yet the impact of patient BMI on nurse radiation dose during coronary angiography has not been studied. Methods: Real-time radiation exposure data were prospectively collected during coronary angiography. Nurse radiation dose was calculated as E = 0.02 (Hos - Hu) + Hos, where E was effective dose and Hos and Hu were outer and inner dosimeter radiation doses, respectively. Patient radiation dose was estimated by dose area product (DAP). Patient BMI was categorized by the NIH classification. Results: In 1,119 consecutive coronary angiography procedures, significant increases in patient DAP (p
