Same-Day Discharge After Coronary Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA)

Phase 4
Terminated
Conditions
Acute Coronary Syndrome
Interventions
Procedure: Same-day discharge
Registration Number
NCT01068119
Lead Sponsor
Piedmont Healthcare
Brief Summary

Same day discharge is safe and feasible in selected troponin negative patients undergoing coronary planned percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or ad hoc PCI via the transfemoral approach.

Detailed Description

The feasibility and safety of same day discharge post PCI will be examined. Study data will be compared to national registries and national or regional databases of PCI in Troponin negative patients with overnight stay. As part of the registry we will also assess compliance with dual antiplatelet therapy at six months and at 1 year and will record any reasons for premature discontinuation as well as any associated adverse events.
