Objective: To investigate the clinical and perioperative characteristics of patients ≥ 75 who undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to evaluate the risk factors related to short-term post-PCI mortality in this specific patients group.

Methods: 1,035 consecutive subjects who underwent PCI from December 2011 to November 2013 were divided into four categories: (1) patients with stable angina (SA) ≥ 75 years (n = 58); (2) patients with SA < 75 years (n = 218); (3) patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) ≥ 75 years (n = 155); (4) patients with ACS < 75 years (n = 604). A multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to detect risk factors of six-month mortality in patients ≥ 75 years who had undergone PCI.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Yu-Sheng Reng"

  • - Yu-Sheng Reng's research primarily focuses on the clinical outcomes and risk factors associated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in older patients, particularly those aged 75 years and above.
  • - In a study involving 1,035 subjects, Reng evaluated the short-term post-PCI mortality risk among different age groups and clinical conditions, finding significant differences in outcomes for older patients.
  • - The research utilized multivariable logistic regression to identify specific risk factors contributing to mortality in the cohort of elderly patients undergoing PCI, emphasizing the need for tailored approaches in treating this demographic.
