Feasibility and Safety of Same-Day Discharge of Troponin Negative Patients After Coronary PTCA Via the Transfemoral Approach


Same day discharge is safe and feasible in selected troponin negative patients undergoing
coronary planned percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or ad hoc PCI via the transfemoral
approach.


The feasibility and safety of same day discharge post PCI will be examined. Study data will
be compared to national registries and national or regional databases of PCI in Troponin
negative patients with overnight stay. As part of the registry we will also assess
compliance with dual antiplatelet therapy at six months and at 1 year and will record any
reasons for premature discontinuation as well as any associated adverse events.
