Core Tip A single-center, retrospective study was conducted to evaluate the short- and long-term outcomes of patients undergoing outpatient percutaneous coronary interventions. During the follow-up period, 787 procedures were performed on 444 patients, including 25 procedures in the left main and 115 procedures in the proximal left anterior descending artery. Over the 720 days of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events follow-up, there were 11 deaths (1.93%), 5 myocardial infarctions (0.88%), 60 cases of target vessel revascularization (7.62%), and 1 stroke (0.17%). The results of study suggest that percutaneous coronary interventions performed on an outpatient basis with very short discharge times may be safe and feasible.
