Article Synopsis
- This study analyzes the evolution of mortality rates for two main heart procedures, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), in Spain over a span of years.
- Using hospital data from 2010-2012 and 2016-2019, researchers applied multivariate regression models to assess mortality differences, taking into account factors like age, gender, and patient health conditions.
- The findings show that CABG has significantly lower mortality rates, particularly for more complex patients, while the mortality rates for PCI have remained stable, influencing how doctors choose between these treatments for coronary artery disease.
