Comparison of frequency of hemorrhagic stroke in patients <75 years versus > or =75 years of age among patients receiving glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors during percutaneous coronary interventions.
We identified 1,369 consecutive patients who received glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors during 1,461 stenting procedures (2,382 lesions); of these, 240 (17.5%) were aged > or =75 years (253 procedures, 430 lesions). Very elderly patients (> or =75 years) had similar in-hospital outcomes but a higher hemorrhagic stroke rate than patients aged <75 years.

متن کاملOutcomes of minimally invasive valve surgery versus median sternotomy in patients age 75 years or greater.
BACKGROUND Advanced age is a major predictor of poor outcome in patients undergoing valve surgery. We hypothesized that elderly patients who underwent minimally invasive valve surgery for aortic or mitral valve disease would do better when compared with those undergoing the standard median sternotomy. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 2,107 consecutive heart operations at our institution an...
