Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to create a predictive model to identify factors linked to longer hospital stays among Medicare patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
  • Data was collected from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample registry covering 91,880 patients, with results showing that extended hospital stays were greater than 5 days, influenced by sociodemographic and medical factors.
  • The final model demonstrated high accuracy in predicting extended stays, especially noting that using drug-eluting stents was linked to a 31% reduced risk of longer hospital stays.
