Purpose

Coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is often performed in patients with ischemic heart disease. The safety of PCI has improved with new devices and strategies, but complications still occur, especially during complex procedures. The objectives of this multi-center observational registry are to examine frequency of complications occuring during cardiac catheterization and PCI, examine procedural strategies utilized for complication management, and evaluate the clinical outcomes (both immediate and during follow-up.)

Detailed Description

The safety of PCI has improved with new devices and strategies, but complications still occur, especially during complex procedures. Systematic study of cardiac procedure complications can improve procedural safety and optimize short and long-term patient outcomes. The objectives of this multi-center observational registry are to 1-Examine the frequency and types of complications occurring during cardiac catheterization and PCI among participating sites, 2-Examine the procedural strategies (techniques and devices) utilized for complication management, 3-Evaluate the clinical outcomes (both immediate and during follow-up) after each complication type.

Notice

Study information shown on this site is derived from ClinicalTrials.gov (a public registry operated by the National Institutes of Health). The listing of studies provided is not certain to be all studies for which you might be eligible. Furthermore, study eligibility requirements can be difficult to understand and may change over time, so it is wise to speak with your medical care provider and individual research study teams when making decisions related to participation.
