Outcomes and safety of same-day discharge after percutaneous coronary intervention: A 10-year single-center study.

Aims: Same-day discharge (SDD) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was safe and cost-effective in randomized and observational studies but faces limited acceptance due to concerns about early adverse events. Our aim was to evaluate early outcomes after SDD PCI in a high-volume urban PCI center over 10 years.

Methods And Results: From 2007 to 2016, 1,635 unselected patients had PCI at our ambulatory cardiac care unit, mainly for stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD).

Coronary Procedures After TAVI With the Self-Expanding Aortic Bioprosthesis Medtronic CoreValve™, Not an Easy Matter.

Objectives: To evaluate the feasibility of coronary procedures after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with the CoreValve™ device.

Background: Due to its design, CoreValve™ prosthesis may interfere with coronary procedures. Data on this issue are sparse.
