Purpose Of Review:
Shorter hospital stay after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can provide economic advantage. Same-day discharge (SDD) after transradial PCI is thought to reduce the cost of care while maintaining the quality and safety. This review summarizes the current knowledge of the benefits and safety of this concept.
Recent Findings:
Increase in rate of transradial PCI over the last two decades has resulted in recent growth in rate of acceptance of SDD after a successful procedure. SDD is shown to result in savings of $3500 to $5200 per procedure with comparable adverse event rate of traditional discharge processes. SDD after PCI is shown to be safe and results in cost advantage maintaining the safety profile. The acceptance rate of SDD is still not optimum, and further market penetration of SDD practice would be achieved only if the institutional and operator preference barriers are addressed.
