Sex related disparities after complex percutaneous coronary interventions.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Complex Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for the treatment of ischemic heart disease has increased significantly. We aimed to evaluate sex-related differences in patients undergoing complex PCI.

Methods

single-center prospective observational study including patients undergoing complex PCI between 2017 and 2023. Baseline and procedural features, and mid-term outcomes were compared according to the gender distribution. The combined primary endpoint included stroke, myocardial infarction, need for a new coronary revascularization, and all-cause mortality. Propensity score (PS) matching with an inverse probability of treatment weight (IPW) approach was used to adjust for differences in baseline characteristics.

Results

1,283 patients were included, 9
