Introduction:The role of sex-based differences in the outcomes after principal percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in octogenarians is not well studied.Hypothesis:There are no differences in outcomes of PCI in octogenarians based on sex.Methods and Results:From 2016 to 2019, 37,147 hospitalizations (unweighted sample) for principal PCI procedures were identified. Among the principal PCI procedures performed, 44.9% (n = 16,660) were performed in females, and 55.2% (n = 20,487) in males (p < 0.001), 82.4% in Whites, 5.4% in Blacks, 6.4% in Hispanics, and 2.6% in Asians. 20,986 (56.5%) principal PCI hospitalizations had a Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) of three or higher. The mean age for Octogenarians was 83.6 ± 2.7 years. Compared to males, the females were slightly older (mean age: 83.8 vs. 83.5; p < 0.001), had higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus (20.5% vs 18%, p<0.001) and lower Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) of three or higher (53.6% vs. 58.9%, p <0.001). Females had higher incidence of cardiogenic shock (4.9% vs 4.2%, p=0.002), higher in-hospital mortality (4% vs 3%, p<0.001) and longer length of stay (LOS) (4.4 days vs 4.1 days, p<0.001). Multivariate regression analysis showed that, compared to males, females had a significantly higher odds of in-hospital mortality (aOR: 1.23; 95% CI: 1.10, 1.37; p <0.001) and cardiogenic shock (aOR: 1.17; 95% CI: 1.06, 1.30; p=0.002) after controlling for age, race, hospital region, hospital teaching status, income, insurance provider, and CCI. From 2016-2019, in octogenarians, the annual incidence of principal PCI hospitalizations increased from 127 per 100,000 hospitalizations in 2016 to 137 per 100,000 hospitalizations in 2019, p<0.001.Conclusions:The incidence of PCI done in octogenarians is rising every year. Females have an increased likelihood of in-hospital mortality, longer LOS, and cardiogenic shock. |
