Popis: | PURPOSE To present real-world data to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of bivalirudin, a direct thrombin inhibitor, in an unselected group of patients undergoing percutaneous peripheral interventions (PPI). METHODS Data were extracted from a prospectively collected peripheral vascular registry developed for quality assurance measures at 2 centers. Of 398 consecutive patients (195 men; mean age 69.4+/-11.3 years) who underwent PPI in a 2-year period, 369 (92.7%) received bivalirudin (0.75 mg/kg bolus followed by a 1.75 mg/kg/h infusion) and 29 (7.3%) received unfractionated heparin (UFH). In the bivalirudin sample, critical limb ischemia was present in 28.0% of patients, TASC D lesion in 29.5%, and angiographic thrombus in 7.8% of vessels. Demographic, clinical, procedural, and angiographic variables and in-hospital complications were analyzed. All in-hospital adverse events were independently adjudicated.
