Radiation dose typical values per procedure complexity for transcatheter ventricular septal defect closure in pediatrics

This study aims to establish radiation dose typical values (TV) for ventricular septal defect (VSD) percutaneous closures based on patient-, device- and procedure-related characteristics. Clinical and exposure data were retrospectively reviewed for 92 consecutive pediatric patients with VSD in whom transcatheter closure attempt was undertaken between March 2016 and December 2019 at a single reference center. TV were derived as the median value...
