Prognosis of PCI in the Older Adult Population: Outcomes From the Multicenter Prospective e-ULTIMASTER Registry.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Older adult patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are usually excluded from clinical trials. This study aimed to assess 1-year clinical outcomes in patients aged >80 years.

Methods

This all-comer registry included patients who underwent PCI using the Ultimaster stent. Primary clinical endpoint was target lesion failure (TLF), a composite of cardiac death (CD), target vessel-related myocardial infarction (TV-MI), or clinically indicated target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR).

Results

In total, 3286 (8.8%) patients aged ≥80 years were compared with 33,912 patients aged <80 years. The older adult patients included more women, had more comorbidities and exhibited more complex coronary anatomy. The incidence of TLF was higher in the olde
