Early discharge of patients (within 24 h) after percutaneous coronary intervention is feasible and safe in Indian setup

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the commonest cardiac procedure in most centres in India. Unlike in most western countries, patients who undergo PCI in India are discharged after a few days. We undertook an observational study of 100 consecutive patients to evaluate the outcome of early...

description Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the commonest cardiac procedure in most centres in India. Unlike in most western countries, patients who undergo PCI in India are discharged after a few days. We undertook an observational study of 100 consecutive patients to evaluate the outcome of early discharge (within 24 h) after uncomplicated elective PCI. This showed that early discharge is feasible and safe; and most patients felt comfortable with early discharge. It is the responsibility of the interventional cardiologist to educate and reassure these uncomplicated PCI patients about the safety of this approach.
