Analysis of Influencing Factors of Unplanned Readmission in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome Within 30 Days After PCI.

OBJECTIVE

The purpose of this study is to identify the influencing factors of unplanned readmission in patients with the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) within 30 days after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

METHODS

From November 1, 2018, to October 31, 2019, the clinical data of 1277 patients with acute coronary syndrome and percutaneous coronary intervention retrospectively were collected. After screening by exclusion and rejection criteria, a total of 936 patients finally entered the study. Patients were divided into the readmission group (57 cases) and the non-readmission group (879 cases), according to whether unplanned readmission occurred within 30 days after PCI. To analyze the influence of patients' age, past disease history, medication history, laboratory data, vascular diseases, and other factors on readmission and the clinical characteristics of readmission patients.

RESULTS

Fifty-seven patients had unplanned readmission within 30 days, and the readmission rate was 6.09%. The clinical features of readmission patients are older age, longer hospitalization days, more emergency percutaneous coronary intervention, more patients with diabetes history, and more patients diagnosed with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Logistic regression analysis revealed that smoking index, number of diseased vessels, ACEF score, diabetes, and PCI status were the influencing factors of unplanned readmission of ACS patients within 30 days after PCI.

CONCLUSION

Smoking index, number of diseased vessels, ACEF score, diabetes, and PCI status are the influencing factors of unplanned readmission within 30 days after percutaneous coronary intervention for patients with acute coronary syndrome.
