Why the study?
Does same-day discharge reduce adverse cardiovascular outcomes compared to overnight stay in patients with stable CAD undergoing PCI?
Population
8 RCTs pooling 3081 patients with stable coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
Comparison
Same-day discharge following PCI vs Overnight stay in the hospital following PCI
Design
Meta-analysis
Follow-up
30 days
Key result
Same day discharge following percutaneous coronary intervention did not significantly differ from overnight hospital stay in the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (OR 0.45, 95% CI 0.20-1.02; P=0.06) in patients with stable coronary artery disease.

Does same-day discharge reduce adverse cardiovascular outcomes compared to overnight stay in patients with stable CAD undergoing PCI?
Odds Ratio: 0.45 (95% CI 0.2–1.02)
p-value: p=0.06
Same-day discharge following PCI in patients with stable CAD appears safe, with no significant increase in 30-day adverse cardiovascular outcomes compared to overnight hospital stay.
Bundhun et al. (2017) conducted a meta-analysis in Stable coronary artery disease (n=3,081). Same day discharge following PCI vs. Overnight stay in the hospital following PCI was evaluated on Major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) (OR 0.45, 95% CI 0.20-1.02, p=0.06). Same day discharge following percutaneous coronary intervention did not significantly differ from overnight hospital stay in the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (OR 0.45, 95% CI 0.20-1.02; P=0.06) in patients with stable coronary artery disease.
