Key result
Same-day discharge after PCI increased from 2.5% in 2009 to 7.4% in 2013 (P-trend <0.001) and had similar rates of unplanned readmissions and mortality compared to next-day discharge.

Same-day discharge after PCI was associated with similar readmission rates; hypothesis-generating and requires randomized confirmation before practice change.

Does same-day discharge after PCI result in similar rates of unplanned readmissions compared to next-day discharge in adults undergoing outpatient PCI?
Same-day discharge after PCI is safe with similar readmission and mortality rates compared to next-day discharge, though utilization remains low and disparities exist.
Agarwal et al. (2017) conducted a cohort in Percutaneous coronary intervention. Same-day discharge vs. Next-day discharge was evaluated on Unplanned readmissions within 7 and 30 days. Same-day discharge after PCI increased from 2.5% in 2009 to 7.4% in 2013 (P-trend <0.001) and had similar rates of unplanned readmissions and mortality compared to next-day discharge.
