Elective Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) Program Reports, 2020

Twenty hospitals are now certified to perform elective PCIs without onsite cardiac surgery, and it continues to be safe when performed in these hospitals.

This report provides two risk-adjusted outcome measures for PCI mortality and post-PCI stroke. Also included are observed events for post-PCI emergency coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.

Key Findings

• The elective PCI mortality rate for certified hospitals was equivalent to the statewide elective PCI mortality rate of 0.25 percent.

• There were zero post-PCI strokes at certified hospitals, while the statewide elective PCI stroke rate for certified hospitals was 0.10 percent.
