Background The association between left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) change (ΔLVEF) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and the long‐term mortality rate in patients with coronary artery disease is incompletely investigated. We aimed to assess the impact of PCI on LVEF and the association of ΔLVEF after PCI with the long‐term mortality rate. Methods and Results This observational study included 8181 patients with paired angiographic LVEF measurements performed at baseline and 6 to 8 months following the index PCI. ΔLVEF was defined as LVEF measured on the 6‐ to 8‐month angiography minus LVEF measured on the baseline angiography. LVEF change was classified according to the following categories: reduced (ΔLVEF 0% to |
