Background: High Risk Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is increasingly being performed with the availability of hemodynamic support. The aim of this study was to determine the predictors of length of stay (LOS) for high risk PCI in US. Methods: We explored the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project’s Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) using the ICD9 procedure code of 36.07 and 36.06 for PCI. NIS is largest all-payer dataset that represents 20% of all US hospitals. We included patients who had PCI from 2005 through 2010 who also underwent Percutaneous Circulatory Assist Device (PCAD) or Intra-aortic Balloon Pump (IABP) placement during the same hospital admission. Severity of comorbidities was defined by Deyo modification of Charlson’s Comorbidity Index (CCI). Hospitals were identified by a unique hospital identification number and hospital volume was determined by calculating the total number of PCI performed by an institution on year to year basis. Complications were based on Patient Safety Indicators (PSI) recognized by Agency for Health Care Research and Quality to monitor in hospital complications. We examined the predictors of LOS by a mixed effects linear regression model including patient demographics, admission characteristics, CCI quartiles with first quartile as a reference, hospital PCI volume quartiles, IABP or PCAD use and periprocedural complications. Hospital ID was incorporated as random effects in the model. Results: A total of 26,300 High Risk PCIs (weighted n = 130,151) were available for analysis. Factors associated with increased LOS were the use of IABP as compared to PCAD (+0.86 days, p=0.03), occurrence of any complication (+4.67 days, P < 0.001), high CCI (+2.5 days for CCI=2 and +4.1 days for CCI≥3, p<0.001 for both), teaching hospital (+0.96 days, p <0.001), presence of myocardial infarction (MI) or shock (+0.55 days, p = 0.002) and highest quartile of hospital PCI volume (+0.86 days, p<0.001). Factors associated with decreased LOS included private insurance (-0.9 days, p < 0.001) and self-pay or no insurance (-0.89 days, p<0.001). Conclusion: In our observational study based on a large database, use of IABP as compared to PCAD, occurrence of complications, CCI, teaching hospital, presence of MI or shock and high PCI volume were associated with increased LOS & having private insurance and self pay or no insurance was associated with decreased LOS.

A P2Y12 inhibitor-based monotherapy after a short period of dual antiplatelet therapy is emerging as a plausible strategy to decrease bleeding events in high-risk patients receiving dual antiplatelet therapy after percutaneous coronary intervention. Ticagrelor With Aspirin or Alone in High-Risk Patients After Coronary Intervention (TWILIGHT), a randomized double-blind trial, tested this approach by dropping aspirin at 3 months and continuing with ticagrelor monotherapy for an additional 12 months. The study enrolled 9,006 patients, of whom 7,119 who tolerated 3 months of dual antiplatelet therapy were randomized after 3 months into two arms: ticagrelor plus placebo and ticagrelor plus aspirin. The primary endpoint of interest, Bleeding Academic Research Consortium type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding, occurred less frequently in the experimental arm (HR 0.56; 95% CI [0.45–0.68]; p<0.001), whereas the secondary endpoint of ischemic events was similar between the two arms (HR 0.99; 95% CI [0.78–1.25]). Transition from dual antiplatelet therapy consisting of ticagrelor plus aspirin to ticagrelor-based monotherapy in high-risk patients at 3 months after percutaneous coronary intervention resulted in a lower risk of bleeding events without an increase in risk of death, MI, or stroke.

The Mehran risk score (MRS) was used to classify patients with coronary heart disease and evaluate the preventive effect of alprostadil on contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) after percutaneous coronary intervention. The patients (n = 1146) were randomized into an alprostadil and control group and then divided into 3 groups on the basis of the MRS: low-risk, moderate-risk, and high-risk groups. The primary end point was the occurrence of CIN (alprostadil + hydration vs simple hydration treatment); secondary end points included serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine clearance rate, cystatin C, interleukin-6, C-reactive protein, proteinuria, and differences in the incidence of major adverse events. In the low-risk, moderate-risk, and high-risk groups, the incidence of CIN in the control and alprostadil group was 2.9 versus 2.6% ( P = .832), 11.4 versus 4.9% ( P = .030), 19.1 versus 7.7% ( P = .041), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that alprostadil treatment was a favorable protective factor for moderate-risk and high-risk CIN patients (OR = 0.343, 95% CI: 0.124-0.951, P = .040). Alprostadil can be used as a preventive treatment for moderate- and high-risk CIN patients classified by the MRS. The reduction of CIN by alprostadil may be related to an anti-inflammatory effect.

Background: The aim of this research was to use the Mehran risk score to classify elderly diabetics with coronary heart disease to assess the preventive effect of trimetazidine on contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in different risk population. Methods: An uncompromised of 760 elderly diabetics that went through PCI were included in this research. The patients were first divided into three groups in the light of MRS: low-risk, moderate-risk, and high-risk group, then randomized into trimetazidine group and the control group respectively. The first endpoint was the amount of CIN, which is described as a rise in serum creatinine levels by ⩾44.2 μmol/L or ⩾25% ratio within 48 or 72 hours after medication. Second endpoint included differences in creatinine clearance rate (CrCl), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (Scr), cystatin-C (Cys-C), and the incidence of major adverse events after administration. Results: In the three groups, the incidence of CIN in trimetazidine and control group was 5.0% versus 4.9%(χ2 = 0.005, p > 0.05), 8.0% versus 18.0% (χ2 = 7.685, p < 0.05), 10.4% versus 27.1% (χ2 = 4.376, p < 0.05), respectively. The multivariable logistic regression result demonstrated that trimetazidine intervention was a profitable element of CIN in moderate and high-risk groups (OR = 0.294, 95% CI 0.094-0.920, p = 0.035). Conclusion: Our study confirmed that trimetazidine can be considered for preventive treatment of CIN occurrence in elderly diabetics with moderate and high-risk population, while there is no obvious advantage compared with hydration therapy in low-risk patients.
