Risk of Death Following Nonfatal Events After PCI

Key Points

• To assess the risk of death following nonfatal cardiovascular events in patients who underwent PCI.
• Conducted a randomized trial with comprehensive follow-up of patients post-PCI.
• Analyzed data on mortality rates after nonfatal events.
• Utilized statistical models to evaluate risk factors and outcomes.
• Significantly increased mortality risk post nonfatal events observed (HR 1.8, 95% CI 1.5-2.2, p<0.001).
• Higher event rates correlate with increased long-term mortality.
• Identified risk factors associated with adverse outcomes in the PCI population.
