Insights

Interventional cardiology procedures in India increased by 13.14% in 2018, with rising trends in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacements (TAVR). This reflects growing disease burden and adoption of advanced techniques.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Interventional Cardiology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • The Cardiological Society of India's National Interventional Council (CSI-NIC) annually collects data on cardiac interventions nationwide.
  • This data highlights disease burden, intervention volumes, and adoption of new procedures across Indian centers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the trends and volume of coronary and non-coronary interventions performed in India during 2018.
  • To assess the adoption of newer interventional cardiology procedures and technologies.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective data collection from all functional cardiac catheterization laboratories across India.
  • Data gathered for the period January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2018, via online submission, email, and proformas.
  • Compilation and analysis of data for various interventional procedures.

Main Results:

  • Over 438,351 percutaneous interventions were performed, utilizing 578,164 coronary stents, marking a 13.14% increase from 709 centers.
  • Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was primarily indicated for post-myocardial infarction cases.
  • Increased utilization of adjunctive imaging techniques during PCI and a rise in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacements (TAVR) were observed.

Conclusions:

  • Percutaneous coronary interventions for coronary artery disease show a consistent year-on-year increase.
  • There was a notable rise in multivessel PCI, complex PCI, intravascular imaging-guided PCI, and TAVR procedures compared to the previous year.

Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

Creating and executing a nursing diagnosis helps nurses plan care and guide patient, family, and community interventions. They are developed based on a patient's physical evaluation and support measuring the outcomes. It is not recommended to select random interventions throughout the planning process. Instead, consider the following six essential factors when choosing interventions:

Nursing Interventions I: Taxonomy of Nursing Interventions

Nursing interventions are chosen as part of the planning process to achieve patient outcomes. Once nursing diagnoses are determined, the goals and outcomes are specified, then the nursing interventions are selected and individualized according to the patient's situation.
A nursing intervention is a treatment or action based on scientific concepts and knowledge from the nursing, behavioral, and physical sciences. Identifying and prioritizing nursing interventions based on the desired outcome...

Pharmacovigilance

Post-marketing surveillance is a critical component of pharmaceutical regulation, often uncovering unanticipated adverse drug reactions (ADRs) once a drug is widely used over an extended period.
This process, termed pharmacovigilance, aims to detect, evaluate, and minimize harmful effects related to medication use. The data collection for pharmacovigilance depends on spontaneous reporting systems, where healthcare professionals or patients voluntarily report suspected ADRs.
In some cases, there...
