Timing of percutaneous coronary intervention and risk of new-onset acute ischemic stroke in non-ST elevation myocardial infarction: A retrospective cohort study insight into the National Inpatient Sample Database (2016-2019).

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

For patients with high-risk non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), current guidelines recommend an early invasive strategy within 24 h. New-onset acute ischemic stroke (NAIS) is a rare but fatal complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the effect of the timing of PCI and the risk of NAIS in NSTEMI is poorly defined.

Methods

Patients with NSTEMI who underwent PCI were queried from the National Inpatient Sample Database (2016-2019) and stratified into three groups: early (<24 h), medium (24-72 h), and late (>72 h) PCI. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to determine the association between timing of PCI and NAIS.

Results

Among 633,115 weighted hospitalizations, patients in the late PCI group had a hi
