Prognostic implication of anemia on in-hospital outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention
Although prior studies have shown a relationship between anemia and in-hospital mortality after coronary artery bypass grafting and acute myocardial infarction (MI), the prognostic implication of anemia in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unknown. Therefore, we evaluat...

Zusammenfassung: | Although prior studies have shown a relationship between anemia and in-hospital mortality after coronary artery bypass grafting and acute myocardial infarction (MI), the prognostic implication of anemia in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unknown. Therefore, we evaluated the relationship between anemia and outcomes of PCI.
Clinical and outcome data on 48,851 consecutive PCIs were prospectively collected. Patients were classified as anemic using the World Health Organization definition ( |
