Abstract:Objective To assess the effect of PCI on quality of life in very old CHD patients.Methods One hundred and ninety-six ≥80 years old CHD patients were divided into PCI group (n=92) and drug therapy group (n=104).Their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were followed up for 12 months during which non-event survival rate,readmission rate,and incidence of recurrent arrhythmia,cardiogenic death,bleeding events were recorded.Results The incidence of 3-vessel lesions and serum creatinine level were significantly higher in PCI group than in drug therapy group (70.65% vs 25.00%,82.63±25.35 μmol/L vs 71.09±22.71 μmol/L,P<0.01).The non-event survival rate was significantly higher while the readmission rate was significantly lower in PCI group than in drug therapy group (66.30% vs 50.96%,25.00% vs 44.23%,P<0.05).No significant difference was found in recurrent arrhythmia and cardiogenic death between the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion PCI can effectively improve the quality of life in very old CHD patients.
