Racial Disparities in Diagnostic Evaluation and Revascularization in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction-A 15-Year Longitudinal Study.

We aimed to evaluate longitudinal trends of racial and ethnic disparities in the utilization of diagnostic angiograms, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) for non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We retrospectively analyzed the National Inpatient Sample (2005-2019). The 15-year period was divided into 5, 3-year periods.
