متن کاملAll-cause readmission and repeat revascularization after percutaneous coronary intervention.
BACKGROUND Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is one of the most frequently performed cardiac interventions. However, there is limited data regarding the cause of recurrent hospitalization and repeat revascularization. The aim of this study was to assess re-hospitalization and repeat revascularization within 30 days of the initial hospitalization for PCI, using data from Opolskie Voivodes...
