Abstract Background Frailty may be an important marker for poor outcomes in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and there is limited literature on outcomes based on frailty from national cohorts. Purpose This study evaluates the prevalence of frailty, changes in frailty over time and outcomes associated with frailty in a national American cohort of patients who underwent PCI. Methods The study included adults who underwent PCI in the National Inpatients Sample between 2004 and 2014. Frailty risk was determined using a validated Hospital Frailty Risk Score (HFRS) using the cutoffs <5, 5–15 and >15 corresponding to low, intermediate and high HFRS. Results There were 7,306,007 PCI admissions in this cohort. A total of 94.58%, 5.39% and 0.03% of admissions were for low HFRS, intermediate HFRS and high HFRS, respectively. The proportion of intermediate or high frailty risk patients increased over time from 1.9% in 2004 to 11.7% in 2014. In-hospital death increased from 1.0% with low HFRS to 13.9% with high HFRS and average length of stay increased from 2.9±3.3 days to 17.1±15.5 days from low to high HFRS. Greater frailty risk was associated with greater average inpatient cost which was $17,743±11,059, $38,824±34,809 and $56,119±49,772 for low, intermediate and high HFRS, respectively. There were increased adverse outcomes with high frailty including greater in-hospital death (OR 9.91 95% CI 7.17–13.71), in-hospital bleeding complications (OR 4.99 95% CI 3.82–6.51), in-hospital vascular complications (OR 3.96 95% CI 3.00–5.23) and in-hospital stroke (OR 10.49 95% CI 8.28–13.29) comparing high to low HFRS. Conclusions More than 1 in 20 patients who undergo PCI have intermediate or high risk of frailty which has significantly increased over time. There are poor outcomes and increased inpatient costs associated with greater frailty. Improvements in education of healthcare workers and increased awareness of frailty could facilitate frailty-tailored care to minimise risk of adverse outcomes and its associated costs.

IntroductionThe radial artery has become the standard access site for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in stable coronary artery disease and acute coronary syndrome, because of less access site related bleeding complications. Patients with complex coronary lesions are under-represented in randomised trials comparing radial with femoral access with regard to safety and efficacy. The femoral artery is currently the most applied access site in patients with complex coronary lesions, especially when large bore guiding catheters are required. With slender technology, transradial PCI may be increasingly applied in patients with complex coronary lesions when large bore guiding catheters are mandatory and might be a safer alternative as compared with the transfemoral approach.Methods and analysisA total of 388 patients undergoing complex PCI will be randomised to radial 7 French access with Terumo Glidesheath Slender (Terumo, Japan) or femoral 7 French access as comparator. The primary outcome is the incidence of the composite end point of clinically relevant access site related bleeding and/or vascular complications requiring intervention. Procedural success and major adverse cardiovascular events up to 1 month will also be compared between both groups.Ethics and disseminationEthical approval for the study was granted by the local Ethics Committee at each recruiting center (‘Medisch Ethische Toetsing Commissie Isala Zwolle’, ‘Commissie voor medische ethiek ZNA’, ‘Comité Medische Ethiek Ziekenhuis Oost-Limburg’, ‘Comité d’éthique CHU-Charleroi-ISPPC’, ‘Commission cantonale d'éthique de la recherche CCER-Republique et Canton de Geneve’, ‘Ethik Kommission de Ärztekammer Nordrhein’ and ‘Riverside Research Ethics Committee’). The trial outcomes will be published in peer-reviewed journals of the concerned literature.Trial registration numberNCT03846752.

Background: Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) has been performed traditionally by using femoral approach. Transradial approach has become increasingly popular as it is likely to be less complicating, more comfortable and relatively cost effective having mortality and morbidity benefits. The aim of the study was to compare the in-hospital outcomes of transradial PPCI with that of transfemoral route. Methods: A total of 80 patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who underwent PPCI were enrolled in the study. Patients were divided in two groups. Group-I: transradial PPCI; and Group-II: transfemoral PPCI. All patients were followed up during the period of hospital stay and adverse outcomes were observed and compared between the groups. Results: The result showed that bleeding took place in 2.5% patient of Group-I and 15% patients of Group- II. Vascular complications occurred in 2.5% and 12.5% patients of Group-I and Group-II, respectively. In Group-II, 7.5% patients died with none in Group-I. In Group-II, 37.5% patients experienced some sort of adverse outcomes whereas only 15% of the patients of Group-I did have such experiences (p<0.05). Bleeding and vascular complications were significantly more in Group-II (p<0.05). The mean hospital stay time was significantly lower in Group-I (p<0.001). Conclusions: Transradial PPCI is safer than transfemoral approach in respect of procedural and post procedural complications including bleeding, vascular complications and mortality. So, transradial approach may be an attractive alternative to conventional transfemoral approach and can be practiced routinely for PPCI. Cardiovasc. j. 2019; 11(2): 98-104

ObjectiveTo examine the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in a multiethnic South East Asian population.SettingFifteen participating cardiology centres contributed to the Malaysian National Cardiovascular Disease Database—Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (NCVD-PCI) registry.Participants28 742 patients from the NCVD-PCI registry who had their first PCI between January 2007 and December 2014 were included. Those without their BMI recorded or BMI <11 kg/m2or >70 kg/m2were excluded.Main outcome measuresIn-hospital death, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), vascular complications between different BMI groups were examined. Multivariable-adjusted HRs for 1-year mortality after PCI among the BMI groups were also calculated.ResultsThe patients were divided into four groups; underweight (BMI <18.5 kg/m2), normal BMI (BMI 18.5 to <23 kg/m2), overweight (BMI 23 to <27.5 kg/m2) and obese (BMI ≥27.5 kg/m2). Comparison of their baseline characteristics showed that the obese group was younger, had lower prevalence of smoking but higher prevalence of diabetes, hypertension and dyslipidemia. There was no difference found in terms of in-hospital death, MACE and vascular complications after PCI. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression analysis showed that compared with normal BMI group the underweight group had a non-significant difference (HR 1.02, p=0.952), while the overweight group had significantly lower risk of 1-year mortality (HR 0.71, p=0.005). The obese group also showed lower HR but this was non-significant (HR 0.78, p=0.056).ConclusionsUsing Asian-specific BMI cut-off points, the overweight group in our study population was independently associated with lower risk of 1-year mortality after PCI compared with the normal BMI group.

The main cause of haemostasis defects and related bleeding complications in patients with acute coronary syndromes admitted to the intensive cardiac care unit is the use of multiple antithrombotic drugs, alone or concomitantly with invasive procedures such as percutaneous coronary intervention with stent deployment and coronary artery bypass surgery. These drugs, that act upon several components of haemostasis (platelet function, coagulation, fibrinolysis), are associated with bleeding complications, particularly in elderly patients (more so in women than in men), those who are underweight, and those with comorbid conditions such as renal and liver insufficiency and diabetes. The identification of patients at higher risk of bleeding is the most important preventive strategy. Red cell and platelet transfusions, which may become necessary in patients with severe bleeding, should be used with caution, because transfused patients with acute coronary syndrome have a high rate of adverse outcomes (death, myocardial infarction, and stroke).

Although baseline hemoglobin and renal function are both important predictors of adverse outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), scarce data exist regarding the combined impact of these factors on outcomes. We sought to investigate the impact and threshold value of the hemoglobin to creatinine (Hgb/Cr) ratio, on in-hospital adverse outcomes among non-dialysis patients in a Japanese nationwide registry. We analyzed 157,978 non-dialysis patients who underwent PCI in 884 Japanese medical institutions in 2017. We studied differences in baseline characteristics and in-hospital clinical outcomes among four groups according to their quartiles of the Hgb/Cr ratios. Compared with patients with higher Hgb/Cr ratios, patients with lower ratios were older and had more comorbidities and complex coronary artery disease. Patients with lower hemoglobin and higher creatinine levels had a higher rate of in-hospital adverse outcomes including in-hospital mortality and procedural complications (defined as occurrence of cardiac tamponade, cardiogenic shock after PCI, emergency operation, or bleeding complications that required blood transfusion). On multivariate analyses, Hgb/Cr ratio was inversely associated with in-hospital mortality (odds ratio: 0.91, 95% confidence interval: 0.89–0.92; p < 0.001) and bleeding complications (odds ratio: 0.92, 95% confidence interval: 0.90–0.94; p < 0.001). Spline curve analysis demonstrated that these risks started to increase when the Hgb/Cr ratio was <15, and elevated exponentially when the ratio was <10. Hgb/Cr ratio is a simple index among non-dialysis patients and is inversely associated with in-hospital mortality and bleeding complications after PCI.

Abstract Objective The aim of the present analysis was to evaluate the incidence and predictors of in-hospital adverse outcomes in nonagenarian patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods Consecutive nonagenarian patients undergoing pPCI for STEMI from 2009 to 2019 were retrospectively included in an international multicenter registry. In-hospital all-cause death was the primary outcome. Results A total of 308 patients were included (mean age 92.5±2.5 years, 65.6% female). Mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) at hospital admission was 130.7±33.5 mmHg, 46 (17%) patients presented with a Killip class III-IV, mean left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) was 40.0±11.5% and 147 (58%) patients were independent in everyday activities. In-hospital death occurred in 99 patients (32%). [Figure 1] After multivariate adjustment, lower LVEF (OR per unit reduction 1.08, 95% CI 1.03–1.11, p-value &lt;0.001), lower SBP (OR 0.98 per mmHg reduction, 95% CI 1.01–1.03, p-value 0.001) and being not independent at home (OR 2.56, 95% CI 1.25–5.26, p-value 0.01) resulted independent predictors of in-hospital mortality. [Figure 2] A sensitivity analysis performed in final TIMI 3 flow population confirmed the prognostic role of LVEF and independency on in-hospital mortality. Conclusion Nonagenarian patients presenting with STEMI and undergoing pPCI have high in-hospital mortality. Independency in everyday life is a strong independent predictor of survival to hospital discharge. FUNDunding Acknowledgement Type of funding sources: None. Figure 1 Figure 2

Background and Aim. Obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) is associated with advanced cardiovascular disease requiring procedures such as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Studies report better outcomes in obese patients having these procedures but results are conflicting or inconsistent. Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) has the highest rate of obesity in Canada. The aim of the study was to examine the relationship between BMI and vascular and nonvascular complications in patients undergoing PCI in NL.Methods. We studied 6473 patients identified in the APPROACH-NL database who underwent PCI from May 2006 to December 2013. BMI categories included normal, 18.5 ≤ BMI < 25.0 (n=1073); overweight, 25.0 ≤ BMI < 30 (n=2608); and obese, BMI ≥ 30.0 (n=2792).Results. Patients with obesity were younger and had a higher incidence of diabetes, hypertension, and family history of cardiac disease. Obese patients experienced less vascular complications (normal, overweight, and obese: 8.2%, 7.2%, and 5.3%,p=0.001). No significant differences were observed for in-lab (4.0%, 3.3%, and 3.1%,p=0.386) or postprocedural (1.0%, 0.8%, and 0.9%,p=0.725) nonvascular complications. After adjusting for covariates, BMI was not a significant factor associated with adverse outcomes.Conclusion. Overweight and obesity were not independent correlates of short-term vascular and nonvascular complications among patients undergoing PCI.

BACKGROUND: Patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent placement are often prescribed glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors. However, drug selection is often based on clinicians' preference and cost because few studies have directly compared abciximab and eptifibatide. Objective: To compare clinical outcomes and total hospital costs of abciximab and eptifibatide in patients undergoing stent placement during PCI in a real-world setting. METHODS: A retrospective cohort analysis was conducted of 960 patients administered abciximab or eptifibatide for intracoronary stent placement between 1999 and 2001 at a tertiary care hospital. The primary outcome was bleeding, defined as major, moderate, or minor according to published criteria. Secondary outcomes included in-hospital death, myocardial infarction, revascularization, and the triple composite endpoint of those outcomes, thrombocytopenia, length-of-stay, and total hospital costs. Pearson's χ 2 analysis, Fisher's exact test, and ANOVA were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: The frequency of bleeding complications based on severity was similar between abciximab and eptifibatide: major (2.4% vs 2.8%), moderate (12.4% vs 10.5%), and minor (4.0% vs 3.9%), respectively (p = 0.86). Secondary clinical outcomes were also similar between groups (p > 0.05). Total costs for hospitalization were significantly greater for abciximab compared with eptifibatide ($16 383 ± 6799 vs $14 115 ± 6285; p < 0.001). Drug acquisition costs were also significantly greater for abciximab compared with eptifibatide ($508 ± 159 vs $465 ± 263; p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS: In patients undergoing stent placement during PCI, abciximab and eptifibatide are comparable in terms of safety and effectiveness despite significant differences in hospitalization and acquisition costs.

Introduction. The prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) detected in preoperative work-up for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is high. Instead, the management of a concomitant CAD remains unclear. We evaluate the impact of CAD and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on TAVI procedures. Materials and Methods. A retrospective study was conducted on 1336 consecutive patients who underwent TAVI in Toulouse University Hospital, Rangueil, France. The studied population was divided into 2 groups: CAD-TAVI group and No CAD-TAVI group. Then, the CAD-TAVI group was segregated into 2 subgroups: PCI-TAVI group and No PCI-TAVI group. In-hospital adverse clinical outcomes were assessed in each group. Results. Pre-TAVI work-up revealed significant CAD in 36% of 1030 patients eligible for inclusion in the study. The overall prevalence of in-hospital death, stroke, major or life-threatening bleeding, minor bleeding, major vascular complications, minor vascular complications, pacemaker implantation, and acute kidney injury was 2.7%, 2.4%, 2.8%, 3.6%, 3.9%, 7.5%, 12.5%, and 2.7%, respectively. Among the studied population, 55% were admitted to the cardiac care unit. No significant statistical difference was observed between groups. Discussion. CAD-TAVI population was not more likely to develop in-hospital adverse clinical outcomes post-TAVI procedure compared to others. Also, no significant difference regarding in-hospital death was observed. In parallel, performing PCI prior to TAVI did not increase the risk of in-hospital death and complications. The difference in terms of the distribution of antithrombotic regimen may explain the higher prevalence of bleeding events in the PCI-TAVI group. Conclusion. This study provides direct clinical relevance useful in daily practice. No negative impact has been attributed to the presence of a concomitant CAD and/or preoperative PCI on the TAVI hospitalization period.
