Key result
Among 100 patients who died after percutaneous coronary intervention, the most prevalent risk factors were age ≥50 years (64%), right coronary artery disease (54%), and multi-vessel disease (52%).

Older age, right coronary artery disease, and multi-vessel disease are the most common factors associated with in-hospital mortality following PCI for acute coronary syndrome.
Farooqi et al. (2021) conducted a cross-sectional in Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) post-PCI mortality (n=100). Risk factors for post-PCI mortality (age, lesion site, multi-vessel disease) was evaluated on Prevalence of risk factors among non-survivors. Among 100 patients who died after percutaneous coronary intervention, the most prevalent risk factors were age ≥50 years (64%), right coronary artery disease (54%), and multi-vessel disease (52%).
