Summary

Patients prioritize the risk of repeat revascularization when choosing coronary revascularization procedures like angioplasty and bypass surgery. Patient preferences should guide treatment decisions.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Assessing patient preferences for coronary revascularization outcomes.
  • Comparing angioplasty, conventional coronary bypass surgery, and minimally invasive coronary bypass surgery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate patient preferences for consequences associated with three coronary revascularization procedures.
  • To inform clinical and policy decisions regarding treatment selection.

Main Methods:

  • Nationwide sample recruitment of three respondent groups: no heart disease (n=89), heart disease without prior surgery (n=97), and heart disease with prior surgery (n=118).

Main Results:

  • Risk of repeat revascularization was the primary concern for 62% of respondents.
  • Postprocedure pain was the second most important factor (22%).

  • Angioplasty was preferred over surgical options if its 3-year repeat revascularization risk decreased to below 28% (conventional bypass) and 21% (minimally invasive bypass).
  • Conclusions:

    • Patient preferences are crucial for individual and policy recommendations in coronary revascularization.
    • Incorporating patient values can optimize the selection of revascularization strategies.
