Abstract
Background: Rapid ventricular pacing is mandatory for optimal balloon positioning during aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) in patients with severe aortic stenosis. We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of direct left ventricular (LV) guidewire pacing in comparison with regular pacing induced by temporary pacemaker (PM) placement in the right ventricle. Methods: Direct rapid LV pacing was provided with a 0.035″ guidewire. Baseline clinical characteristics, echocardiographic and procedural data, as well as complication rates, were compared between the two groups. Results: A total of 202 patients undergoing BAV were enrolled (49.5% with direct LV guidewire pacing). The pacing success rate was 100%. In the direct LV guidewire pacing group, we found a lower radiation dose, shorter fluoroscopy and overall procedural time (0.16 vs. 0.28 Gy, p = 0.02; 5.4 vs. 10.3 min, p = 0.01; 17 vs. 25 min, p = 0.01; respectively). In addition, the complication rate was lower in that group (cardiac tamponades, vascular access site complications, blood transfusions rate, and in-hospital mortality: 0% vs. 3.9%; 4.0% vs. 15.7%; 2.0% vs. 12.7%; 2.0% vs. 9.8%, p = 0.01 for all, respectively). Conclusions: Direct rapid LV guidewire pacing is a simple, safe and effective option for BAV with a reduced complication rate compared to a temporary PM placed in the right ventricle.

Abstract
Coronary artery perforation (CAP) is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). With a growing number of PCIs in complex lesions, the problem of CAP becomes even more important nowadays. Data on CAP rates in Poland are lacking. Presented study is an analysis of 344,517 consecutive patients treated with PCI between 2014 and 2017. Data were gathered from the Polish National PCI Registry (ORPKI). During 4 years of data collection CAP was observed in 595 (0.17%) cases. Patients diagnosed with CAP were older (69 years Q1:63; Q3:78 vs 66 years Q1:60; Q3:75; p <0.001), more often female (44% vs 32%; p <0.001), with arterial hypertension (77% vs 71%; p = 0.002), and chronic kidney disease (8.9% vs 5.4%; p <0.001). In the CAP group, a higher rate of PCIs within chronic total occlusions (8.7% vs 2.3%; p <0.001) and saphenous vein graft lesions (2.7% vs 1.3%; p = 0.002), as well as rotational atherectomy procedures (2.2% vs 0.4%; p <0.001) was observed. Patients with CAP had higher rate of no-reflow phenomenon (5.5% vs 0.5%; p <0.001) and greater periprocedural mortality (4.2% vs 0.5%; p <0.001). In conclusion, our study confirms that CAP is more common during complex PCI procedures in high-risk patients. CAP occurrence is associated with worse immediate outcomes including increased periprocedural mortality.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Radial approach (RA) for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with reduced mortality and access site complications. The routine use of the RA in patients should be strongly considered, keeping in mind the learning curve associated with the technique. However, promotion of RA may interfere with the equally important goal of maintaining proficiency in the femoral approach (FA), which is essential in a variety of procedures as well as when RA fails. There is possible risk of higher rate of complications in PCI with FA performed by operators mainly using radial artery as access site.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to evaluate impact of experience and proficiency with RA for clinical outcomes on PCI via FA in “real-world” patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Methods
A total of 539 invasive cardiologists performing PCI in 151 invasive cardiology centers on the Polish territory between 2014 and 2017 were included in study analysis. Proficiency threshold has been set at >400 procedures during four consecutive years per individual operator. They were categorized to quartiles according to total volume of radial artery utilization during all PCIs. Procedures performed on patients with Killip-Kimball class IV on admission to catheterisation laboratory were excluded from analysis.
Results
The most of the operators performed >75% of all procedures via radial artery (326 (60.5%)), 112 (20.8%) used RA in 50–75% of cases, 67 (12.4%) in 25–50% of all PCIs and only 34 (6.3%) invasive cardiologist were using RA in less than 25% of all procedures. Mortality during PCI via FA was higher in group of invasive cardiologist with >75% of all procedures performed with radial access (>75% vs. 50–75% vs. 25–50% vs. <25%: 1.63% (±2.52%) vs. 0.93% (±1.05%) vs. 0.68% (±0.73%) vs. 0.31% (±0.40%); p=0.01). A trend towards higher rate of bleeding at the puncture site during PCI procedures with femoral artery were reported in groups of operators with higher expertise in RA (>75% vs. 50–75% vs. 25–50% vs. <25%: 0.43% (±1.09%) vs. 0.14% (±0.36%) vs. 0.21% (±0.45%) vs. 0.14% (±0.37%); p=0.09).
Conclusions
Higher experience in radial access might be linked to worse outcome in PCI via FA in ACS settings. Femoral artery is important vascular approach and should not be abandoned while learning procedures with radial artery utilization.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
The use of the radial approach (RA) for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has gradually increased. Several studies demonstrated that radial artery is associated with significant reduction in major adverse cardiac events for both coronary angiography and PCI in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, it is still unclear if the side of RA has influence on clinical outcomes in an all-comer population in ACS settings.
Purpose
We sought to evaluate safety, feasibility, and clinical outcomes of right radial approach (RRA) compared to left radial approach (LRA) during PCI in “real-world” patients with ACS.
Methods
A total of 234,087 consecutive patients with ACS treated with PCI and stent implantation via radial approach between 2014 and 2017 in 151 invasive cardiology centers on the Polish territory. Data was based on the ORPKI Polish National Registry. Patients treated with RRA and LRA were compared using a propensity score analysis to avoid possible selection bias. The analysis was done in an “as-treated” manner.
Results
Procedure was conducted using RRA and LRA in 180,378 (77.1%) and 53,709 (22.9%) patients, respectively. After propensity score matching higher total amount of contrast (174.28 (±75.56) vs. 166.95 (±70.57) [ml]; P=0.001) and radiation doses were reported in PCI with left radial artery utilization (1210.21 (±1003.53) vs. 1054.07 (±1024.17) [mGy]; p=0.001). No differences were observed between RRA and LRA in rate of periprocedural adverse events such as myocardial infarction (0.08% vs. 0.08%; p=0.9) stroke (0.02% vs. 0.01%; p=0.1), no-reflow phenomenon (0.64%vs. 0.56%; p=0.1) and death (0.25% vs. 0.24%; p=0.7). A trend towards a lower rate of access-site-related bleeding during PCI was observed in RRA group (0.08% vs. 0.05%; p=0.066). Coronary artery perforation (0.21% vs. 0.16%; p=0.05) and cardiac arrest (0.56% vs 0.42%; p=0.01) were reported more often during PCI conducted with LRA.
Conclusions
Both radial approaches seems to be equally effective in the setting of PCI in ACS. However, utilization of left radial artery was associated with trend toward increased risk of access-site bleeding and higher rate of periprocedural complications as compared to RRA. Higher amount of contrast and radiation doses used in LRA procedures might be equivalent of generally lower experience with this access site.

Abstract
Aim
There are inconsistent data on the sex-related differences in clinical outcomes after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). We aimed to investigate sex-related differences in clinical outcomes after PTA.
Methods
A total of 939 consecutive patients undergoing PTA were enrolled in two large volume centers. Patients were stratified by gender. Baseline characteristics, procedural and long-term clinical outcomes were compared between women and men.
Results
Women represented 37.4% of the study population. Women, compared to men, had more often hypertension (92% vs 86%, p=0.001) and diabetes (54% vs 46%, p=0.02). However, men presented more often with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (14.8% vs 6.8%, p=0.0003), coronary artery disease (45.4% vs 32.7%, p=0.0001), smoking (60.4% vs 45%, p=0.007) and previous PTA (25% vs 17%, p=0.005). There were no differences in 120-month all-cause mortality between groups (women vs. men: 29% vs. 21%, p=0.6). Men were at higher risk of re-PTA at 5-year follow-up (40% vs. 49%; p=0.03). Moreover, male sex was an independent predictor of re-PTA (age-adjusted odds ratio (OR) (95% CI): 1.276 (1.015–1.614), p=0.03). In multivariable Cox regression analysis, a superficial femoral artery chronic total occlusion (SFA-CTO) (hazard ratio [HR]) (95% confidence interval [CI]): 1.68 (1.12–2.5), body mass index (BMI) (hazard ratio (HR)) (95% CI): 0.93 (0.87–0.99), baseline creatinine level hazard ratio (HR)) (95% CI): 0.95 (0.88–0.99) were identified as independent factors of re-PTA in women.

Conclusion
Male sex was identified as an independent predictor of re-PTA. SFA-CTO, BMI and baseline creatinine level were associated with re-PTA in women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preferred technique for bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) implantation included high pressure predilation. Data about direct BVS implantation in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients are scarce. METHODS Analysis of 90 consecutive patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) treated with primary PCI with Absorb deployment between 2013-2016 in a single center. In 45 patients, scaffolds were implanted in the direct technique, other 45 patients underwent Absorb deployment after balloon predilation. RESULTS Follow-up was available in 100% of patients with mean duration of 32±11 months. No cardiac death or scaffold thrombosis were observed in both groups. In the direct group, no target lesion revascularization (TLR) was reported. In the predilation arm, TLR occurred in 4 (9%) patients (P=0.12). Target vessel revascularization (TVR) was observed in 1 (2%) case in the direct group and in 6 (13%) patients from the predilation group (P=0.11). Target vessel MI was reported in one patient from each group. In an intention to treat analysis, we observed significantly higher rates of TVR (15% vs. 2%; P<0.043) and TLR (10% vs. 0%; P=0.038) in the predilation arm. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis did not show significant differences in TLR, TVR and device oriented composite endpoint (a combination of cardiac death, target vessel MI and ischemia driven TLR) between patients treated with both methods. CONCLUSIONS Direct Absorb implantation in patients with ACS may be feasible and safe.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is an important clinical problem especially in the era of extensive utilization of coronary angiography in MI patients. Its pathophysiology is poorly understood which makes diagnostics and treatment of MINOCA challenging in everyday clinical practice. The aim of the study was to assess characteristics of MINOCA patients in Poland based on data from the Polish National ORPKI Registry. In 2016, 49,893 patients with non-ST-segment elevation (NSTEMI) or ST-segment elevation (STEMI) myocardial infarction entered the ORPKI registry. MINOCA was defined as a non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) and a lack of previous coronary revascularization. MINOCA was identified in 3924 (7.8%) patients and clinical presentation was more often NSTEMI than STEMI (MINOCA: 78 vs. 22%; obstructive CAD 51.1 vs. 48.9%; p < 0.0001). MINOCA patients were younger and more often females with significantly lower rates of diabetes, smoking, arterial hypertension, kidney disease, previous MI and previous stroke comparing to patients with obstructive CAD. Myocardial bridge was visualized in angiography more often in the MINOCA group (2.2 vs. 0.4%; p < 0.0001). Additional coronary assessment inducing fractional flow reserve, intravascular ultrasound, optical coherence tomography was marginally (< 1%) used in both groups. Periprocedural mortality was lower in MINOCA group (0.13% vs. 0.95%; p < 0.0001). MINOCA patients represent a significant proportion of MI patients in Poland. Due to multiple potential causes, MINOCA should be considered rather as a working diagnosis after coronary angiography and further efforts should be taken to define the cause of MI in each individual patient.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) are considered as a high-risk group for hemorrhagic events. AIM To assess the safety of bivalirudin vs. unfractionated heparin (UFH) in percutaneous peripheral interventions (PPI) in short- and long-term follow-up. MATERIAL AND METHODS The retrospective single-center, observational study included 160 patients, undergoing PPI. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on the use of anticoagulation - unfractionated heparin (UFH group) or bivalirudin (Biv. group) - and observed up to 5 years. RESULTS The UFH group consisted of 101 patients and the Biv. group consisted of 59. We registered the following end points during in-hospital observation: 1 death (0.63% Biv, p = 0.18), 12 hematomas at puncture site (0.63% Biv. vs. 7.05% UFH, p = 0.04), 2 pseudoaneurysms (1.27% UFH, p = 0.29), thrombosis (0.63% UFH, p = 0.45), 1 bleeding from puncture site (0.63% UFH, p = 0.45). The total number of hemorrhagic complications was 1.24% in the Biv. group and 8.07% in the UFH group (p = 0.04). During long-term follow-up of 65.7 ±36.4 months the all-cause mortality rate was higher in the Biv. group (8.59% Biv vs. 0% in UFH group, p = 0.009). Regression analysis showed that bivalirudin administration is a risk factor for increased mortality risk (p = 0.003, OR = 15, 95% CI: 3.3-107.8). CONCLUSIONS Usage of UFH was associated with a higher number of hemorrhagic complications, especially hematomas at the puncture site in comparison to patients receiving bivalirudin.

Abstract
The most relevant comorbidities in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) are coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes mellitus (DM). However, data of long-term follow-up of patients with chronic total occlusion (CTO) are scarce. The aim of the study was to assess the impact of CAD and DM on long-term follow-up patients after superficial femoral artery (SFA) CTO retrograde recanalization. In this study, eighty-six patients with PAD with diagnosed CTO in the femoropopliteal region and at least one unsuccessful attempt of antegrade recanalization were enrolled in 2 clinical centers. Mean time of follow-up in all patients was 47.5 months (±40 months). Patients were divided into two groups depending on the presence of CAD (CAD group: n = 45 vs. non-CAD group: n = 41) and DM (DM group: n = 50 vs. non-DM group: n = 36). In long-term follow-up, major adverse peripheral events (MAPE) occurred in 66.6% of patients with CAD vs. 36.5% of patients without CAD and in 50% of patients with DM vs. 55% of non-DM subjects. There were no statistical differences in peripheral endpoints in both groups. However, there was a statistically significant difference in all-cause mortality: in the DM group, there were 6 deaths (12%) (P value = 0.038). To conclude, patients after retrograde recanalization, with coexisting CTO and DM, are at higher risk of death in long-term follow-up.

Abstract
Background The relationship between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and periprocedural complications of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) is influenced by several factors. We aimed to investigate the association between COPD, its complication type and rate in patients undergoing PCI. Methods Data were prospectively collected using the Polish Cardiovascular Intervention Society national registry (ORPKI) on all PCIs performed in Poland between January 2015 and December 2016. COPD was present in 5,594 of the 221,187 patients undergoing PCI. We assessed the frequency and predictors of periprocedural complications in PCI. Results Patients with COPD were elder individuals (70.3 ± 9.9 vs. 67 ± 10.8 years; p < 0.05). We noted 145 (2.6%) periprocedural complications in the COPD group and 4,121 (1.9%) in the non-COPD group (p < 0.001). The higher incidence of periprocedural complications in the COPD patients was mainly attributed to cardiac arrest (p = 0.001), myocardial infarctions (p = 0.002) and no-reflows (p < 0.001). COPD was not an independent predictor of all periprocedural complications. On the other hand, COPD was found to be an independent predictor of increased no-reflow risk (odds ratio [OR] 1.447, 95% CI 1.085–1.929; p = 0.01), and at the same time, of decreased risk of periprocedural allergic reactions (OR 0.117, 95% CI 0.016–0.837; p = 0.03). Conclusions In conclusion, periprocedural complications of PCIs are more frequent in patients with COPD. COPD is an independent positive predictor of no-reflow and a negative predictor of periprocedural allergic reactions.

[PMID: 30234894 DOI: 10.5603/cj.a2018.0107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2018] [Revised: 09/13/2018] [Accepted: 09/01/2018] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a paucity of data regarding response of cerebral blood flow to the postural unloading maneuver and its impact on the risk of syncope in patients with aortic stenosis (AS). The aim of the present study was to assess effects of orthostatic stress test on changes in carotid and vertebral artery blood flow and its association with syncope in patients with severe AS. METHODS 108 patients were enrolled (72 with and 36 patients without syncope) with severe isolated severe AS. Peak systolic blood-flow velocity (PSV) and end-diastolic velocity in the carotid arteries and vertebral arteries were measured by duplex ultrasound in the supine position and at 1-2 min after the assumption of the standing position. RESULTS The orthostatic stress test induced a significant decrease in carotid and vertebral arterial flow velocities in all examined arteries (p < 0.001). The median (interquartile range) of mean change in PSV for carotid arteries was higher for patients with syncope (syncope [-] vs. syncope [+]: -0.6 cm/s [-1.8, 1.0] vs. -7.3 cm/s [-9.5, -2.0]; p < 0.001) and similarly for vertebral arteries (-0.5 cm/s [-2.0, 0.5] vs. -4.8 cm/s [-6.5, -1.3]; p < 0.001, respectively). Age, aortic valve area, and mean change in PSV for carotid arteries were independently associated with syncope. CONCLUSIONS In patients with AS, a decrease in carotid and vertebral arterial flow velocities in the standing position was observed and was associated with syncope. The present findings may support the value of an orthostatic test in identifying patients with severe AS and a high risk of syncope.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study is to assess differences in periprocedural outcomes among diabetic and non-diabetic patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and rotational atherectomy (RA). METHODS Under assessment were 221,187 patients from the Polish Cardiovascular Intervention Society national registry (ORPKI) including all PCIs performed in Poland in 2015 and 2016. Data was extracted of 975 patients treated with RA - 336 (34.5%) diabetics and 639 (65.5%) non-diabetics. Periprocedural complications were defined as overall rate or particular complications such as deaths, no-reflows, perforations, dissections, cerebral strokes or bleedings.. Multivariate analysis was performed to assess predictors of periprocedural complications. RESULTS The mean age was similar in diabetics and non-diabetics (70.9 ± 9.0 vs. 72.1 ± 9.9; p = 0.06). Diabetics were more often females (p < 0.01), with arterial hypertension (p < 0.01), kidney failure (p < 0.01) and prior myocardial infarction (p = 0.01). No significant differences were observed in overall or individual periprocedural complications and angiographic success was expressed as thrombolysis in myocardial infarction grade 3 flow after PCI. At baseline, de-novo lesions accounted for 96.5% in diabetics and 99% in non-diabetics (p < 0.01), while overall rate of restenosis was 3.5% and 1%, respectively (p < 0.01). Diabetes was an independent predictor of periprocedural complications in the overall group of patients treated with PCI (OR 1.11, 95% CI 1.04-1.194; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The negative impact of diabetes on the incidence of periprocedural complications and angiographic effectiveness in the group of patients treated with RA is mitigated in the comparison to the non-RA group.

Abstract
Conflicting data exist regarding the associations between on-site surgical backup and outcomes after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Thus, we sought to assess the impact of such a backup on periprocedural outcomes of primary PCI using data from the Polish National Registry of PCI. From 2014 to 2016 data on 66,707 patients presenting with STEMI undergoing primary PCI from 154 centers were collected. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on the presence of on-site surgical backup. Of 66,707 patients, 15,040 (22.6%) patients were treated in 28 centers with on-site surgical backup. On-site surgical backup was associated with a higher center PCI annual volume (662.4 ± 301.8 vs 1098.7 ± 483.5; p <0.001), but a lower operator PCI annual volume (226.7 ± 126.0 vs 207.8 ± 96.6; p <0.001). The periprocedural mortality (1.60% vs 1.09%; p <0.001) was lower in patients from centers with on-site cardiac surgery and both on-site surgical backup (odds ratio [95% confidence interval], 0.618 [0.517; 0.738]; p <0.001) and the mean number of PCIs by operator per year (odds ratio per 10 [95% confidence interval], 0.990 [0.984; 0.996]; p = 0.001] were independent predictors of periprocedural death. In conclusion, results of our study suggest that periprocedural mortality in patients undergoing primary PCI for STEMI is lower in centers than without on-site cardiac surgical backup. Whether this effect on mortality is attributable to such backup itself and/or whether surgical backup is a marker of overall better medical care and adherence to professional guidelines, this needs clarification in further studies.

Abstract
According to guidelines, it is recommended to give P2Y12 inhibitors (preferably ticagrelor or prasugrel) at the time of first medical contact in patients with STEMI. However, in real life antiplatelet treatment strategies are different among countries. We analyzed data on antiplatelet treatment in STEMI patients included into Polish ORPKI national registry. A total of 23,139 STEMI patients from 153 invasive cardiology centers were reported in ORPKI registry between September 2015 and August 2016. Finally 19,437 patients from 122 centers (immediate PCI in 94%) were included into the analysis (lack of ticagrelor or prasugrel usage reported in 31 centers). The dominant P2Y12 inhibitor was clopidogrel (69%) with a high rate of precathlab administration (51.3%). Ticagrelor was administered in 10.1% of patients (2.3% during precathlab phase) and prasugrel in 1.1% (0.4% precathlab). The periprocedural switch from clopidogrel to newer generation oral P2Y12 inhibitors was rare (to ticagrelor: 2%; to prasugrel: 0.15%). Analysis of data from top 10 centers with the highest rate of newer generation P2Y12 inhibitors usage (1295 patients) revealed ticagrelor administration in 43.1% (prasugrel in 3%). During precathlab phase higher proportion of ticagrelor instead of clopidogrel (ticagrelor 17.9%, clopidogrel 29.8%) and higher rate of periprocedural switch from clopidogrel to ticagrelor (11.9%) was found comparing to all centers data (p < 0.001 for all). The strategy of precathlab administration of P2Y12 inhibitors applies to about half of STEMI patients in Poland. Generally, ticagrelor or prasugrel use is low, and not equally distributed among centers. In centers with high usage, ticagrelor is main newer generation P2Y12 inhibitor for precathlab and periprocedural administration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Direct stent implantation is a preferred technique for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). For the deployment of a bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS), the current guidelines recommend aggressive predilatation. Data about direct BVS implantation in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are scarce. AIM We sought to assess procedural characteristics and immediate outcomes of direct Absorb BVS implantation in ACS patients. METHODS A total of 91 patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) requiring urgent coronary revascularisation were enrolled. Among them, 50 patients underwent an attempt of direct Absorb implantation. The control group consisted of 41 patients treated with PCI with BVS deployment after elective predilatation. RESULTS In the direct group BVS deployment was successful in 91% of lesions, and in the remaining 9% of lesions direct implantation failed. In the control group scaffolds were successfully deployed after predilatation in 98% of lesions. In one case Absorb implantation failed even after balloon angioplasty. Type C lesions with severe tortuosity and angulation > 90° were associated with failure in direct Absorb deployment. Quantitative coronary analysis showed similar final percentages of diameter stenosis in the study and control groups. Flow analyses did not show significant differences between both methods. During hospitalisation no recurrent MI, scaffold thrombosis, or target lesion revascularisation was reported in either group. CONCLUSIONS Direct Absorb implantation in ACS patients may be feasible in a suitable lesion anatomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During the first decade following the coronary bypass grafting, at least ten percent of the patients require percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) due to graft failure. Saphenous vein grafts (SVG) are innately at a higher risk of periprocedural complications. The present study aimed to investigate predictors of periprocedural complications of PCI within coronary artery bypass grafts. METHODS This study analyzed data gathered in the Polish National Registry (ORPKI) between January 2015 and December 2016. Of the 221,195 patients undergoing PCI, data on 2,616 patients after PCI of SVG and 442 patients after internal mammary artery (IMA) were extracted. The dissimilarities in periprocedural complications between the SVG, IMA and non-IMA/SVG groups and their predictors were investigated. RESULTS Patients in the SVG group were older (p < 0.001), with a higher burden of concomitant disease and differing clinical presentation. The rate of de-novo lesions was lower, while restenosis was higher at baseline in the SVG (p < 0.001). The rate of no-reflows (p < 0.001), perforations (p = 0.01) and all periprocedural complications (p < 0.01) was higher in the SVG group, while deaths were lower (p < 0.001). Among the predictors of no-reflows, it was found that acute coronary syndromes (ACS), thrombectomy and past cerebral stroke, while the complications included arterial hypertension, Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow before PCI and thrombectomy. CONCLUSIONS Percutaneous coronary interventions of SVG is associated with increased risk of specific periprocedural complications. The ACS, slower TIMI flow before PCI and thrombectomy significantly increase the periprocedural complication rate in patients undergoing PCI of SVG.
