Insights

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) face increased risks. Lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is significantly associated with decreased long-term survival after PCI.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Nephrology
  • Interventional Cardiology

Background:

  • Patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at high risk during percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI).
  • Limited data exist on quantifying risks and long-term outcomes for CKD patients undergoing PCI.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate peri-procedural and long-term outcomes in patients with CKD undergoing PCI.
  • To assess the association between CKD stage and mortality after PCI.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective data collection from 6,478 patients undergoing PCI (2009-2013) from the Cornell Coronary Registry.
  • Patients were stratified into CKD stages based on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).
  • Analysis included procedural outcomes, 30-day events, and 5-year all-cause mortality.

Main Results:

  • Higher incidence of acute heart failure, stroke, new dialysis, transfusions, and bleeding events observed with increasing CKD stage.
  • Five-year survival rates decreased significantly with CKD progression: 98.1% (stage 1) to 76.9% (stage 5).
  • Multivariate analysis showed significantly increased hazard ratios for all-cause mortality in CKD stages 3-5 compared to stage 1.

Conclusions:

  • Lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a significant predictor of decreased long-term survival in patients undergoing PCI.
  • CKD stage is independently associated with adverse peri-procedural outcomes and long-term mortality after PCI.
