Brief Summary:
The RECAP-trial is a randomized controlled, double blinded, superiority trial studying the efficacy of the RADPAD®, a protective drape, that potentially reduces the scattered radiation received by the operator during diagnostic angiograms and percutaneous coronary interventions.
Detailed Description:
A total of 750 consecutive diagnostic angiograms and percutaneous coronary interventions were randomly assigned to the radiation-attenuating (RADPAD®), a dummy drape or a control group in a 1:1:1 ratio. The drapes will be used in addition to conventional shielding material. Primary radiation exposure is measured blindly by a dose aware meter (Philips) positioned at a set location on the operator. Radiation exposure is measured by the X-ray systems (DAP in Gy·cm2). The primary outcome is the effective dose received by the first operator (mSv/Gy·cm2).
