Blood pressure prior to percutaneous coronary intervention is associated with the risk of end-stage renal disease: a nationwide population based-cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hypertension is the most important modifiable risk factor for mortality and morbidity in chronic kidney disease and coronary artery syndrome. The effect of hypertension prior to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on the development of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is unknown.

Methods

We used nationally representative data from the Korean National Health Insurance System-140,164 subjects were enrolled during 2010-2015; they were free of ESRD at enrolment, underwent PCI, and were followed up until 2017. Blood pressure (BP) was measured within at least 2 years prior to PCI. The primary outcome was the development of ESRD.

Results

During a median follow-up of 5.4 years, 2,082 participants (1.5%) developed ESRD. The highest systolic BP group (>160 mmHg) s
