A-22 | Gender Disparities in Periprocedural Complications After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Chronic Total Occlusions

Several studies have reported on gender differences in the risk of periprocedural complications after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) chronic total occlusions (CTOs). The purpose this meta-analysis is to evaluate CTO-PCI based gender. A literature search was conducted for reporting CTO PCI Clinical endpoints included embolic cerebral vascular accident (CVA), tamponade requiring pericardiocentesis, intra-operative perforation, occurrence major bleed, and complications. following databases: Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web Science, Google Scholar. not restricted time or publication status. 8 with 7814 patients who underwent (1609 females, 6205 males) met inclusion criteria. Female had significantly higher all secondary compared male (CVA OR 3.67, 95% CI 1.55-8.70; p<0.01; Tamponade 2.70, 1.40-5.24; Coronary Perforation 5.18, 3.76-7.15; Major Bleed 2.43, 1.50-3.93; p<0.01). There no significant difference perioperative females males (OR 1.43, 0.68-3.02; p=0.34). undergo similar rates complications, however CVA, bleeding events.
