Association of Prolonged Fluoroscopy Time with Procedural Success of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Stable Coronary Artery Disease with and without Chronic Total Occlusion.

ABSTRACT: In percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), the impact of prolonged fluoroscopy time (FT) on procedural outcomes is poorly studied. We analyzed the outcomes of 12,538 consecutive elective PCIs. The primary endpoint was procedure failure (PF), the composite of technical failure, and adverse in-hospital events including all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and target vessel revascularization (MACCE), as well as pericardial tamponade. We stratified the procedures as PCI for chronic total occlusion (CTO, n = 2720) and PCI for non-CTO (n = 9818). Logistic regression demonstrated a significant association between fluoroscopy time and procedural failure with a significant interaction with PCI type (both p < 0.001). The odds ratios (OR) of procedural failure for a 10-min increment in
