Background: The timing of coronary angiography in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) needs to be well defined. In this study, based on the timing of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), we evaluated the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in NSTEMI patients.
Methods: In this longitudinal study, we included 156 NSTEMI patients who underwent a PCI at three time points, including <12 hr. (n = 53), 12-24 hr. (n = 54), and ≥24 hr. (n = 49) and followed them for one, three, and six months to monitor major cardiovascular events. The data analyses were conducted using SPSS version 20.
Result: Four patients (2.56%) were hospitalized during the one-month follow-up, and only one patient (0.06%) had NSTEMI. The incidence of complications, such as readmission, acute coronary syndrome (ACS; 4 patients [2.56%]), and unstable angina (UA; 3 patients [1.92%]) did not differ significantly among the three intervention times. The occurrence of NSTEMI, UA, and recurrent PCI was 2.56%, 3.20%, and 5.12% in four, five, and eight patients, respectively, and no significant differences were observed among the aforementioned times. In the follow-up after six months, the incidence of STEMI, stroke, TLR, and other all-course deaths was observed in one person (0.06%), which all occurred within 12-24 hours. The difference among the three intervention times was non-significant.
Conclusion: Our findings revealed an insignificant difference between the incidence of complications and the three-intervention time.

Patient Management Following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a mainstay procedure for the treatment of coronary artery disease. PCI techniques have evolved considerably since the advent of PCI in 1978, and with this evolution in techniques has come changes in the best practices for patient management following PCI. The objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of key considerations in patient management following PCI.

In congenital heart diseases (CHD) of moderate to great complexity involving the right ventricle (RV), the morphologic RV can be exposed to significant stressors across the lifespan either in a biventricular circulation in a sub-pulmonary or sub-aortic position, or as part of a univentricular circulation. These include pressure and/or volume overload, hypoxia, ischemia, and periprocedural surgical stress leading to remodeling, maladaptation, dilation hypertrophy and dysfunction. This review examines the macroscopic remodeling of the RV in various forms of CHD and explores remodeling trajectories, along with the effects of surgeries and residual lesion repair, in tetralogy of Fallot, Ebstein anomaly, congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries, transposition of the great arteries with atrial switch surgery, and single ventricle palliated by Fontan.

Cardiogenic shock (CS) is associated with high mortality, particularly in women. With early intervention being a cornerstone of CS management, this study aims to explore whether sex differences exist in the utilization of critical interventions, timing of treatment, and in-hospital mortality for patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and non-AMI-CS. For this retrospective cohort study, we queried the National Inpatient Sample (years 2016-2021) for CS-related hospitalizations.

Complications of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. In-depth understanding of the mechanisms and management options of these complications as well as timely recognition and action can sometimes be lifesaving. In this review we discuss the mechanisms, prevention methods, diagnosis, and management of three major PCI complications: a) perforation b) acute vessel closure, and c) equipment loss.

Background: There exists clinical equipoise regarding whether and when an invasive approach should be preferred over conservative treatment in the management of stable late ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) presenting within 12 to 72 h of symptom onset.
Objective: To perform a systematic review to identify the most effective treatment strategy between percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and medical therapy in stable late STEMI presenters by comparing their respective outcomes as well as determine the optimal timing of PCI by evaluating the outcomes of urgent versus non-urgent PCI approach in this patient population.
Methods: PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases were queried from inception until March 2024 for studies comparing the outcomes of PCI versus medical therapy, as well as urgent versus non-urgent PCI, in stable late STEMI patients presenting with symptom onset within 12-72 h.
