American Journal of Cardiology, 220-228. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.amjcard.2018.03.367

It is unclear how age affects rates and causes of unplanned early readmissions after per cutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We analyzed patients in the Nationwide Readmission Database in the United States from 2010 to 2014 and examined the impact...

Accelerated patent haemostasis using a procoagulant disk: a protocol designed to minimise the risk of radial artery occlusion following cardiac catheterisation (2018)
Journal Article
Ayyaz Ul Haq, M., Nazir, S. A., Rashid, M., Shing Kwok, C., Mubashiruddin, S., Alisiddiq, Z., …Nolan, J. (2019). Accelerated patent haemostasis using a procoagulant disk: a protocol designed to minimise the risk of radial artery occlusion following cardiac catheterisation. Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine, 20(2), 137-142. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.carrev.2018.03.026

Purpose Radial artery occlusion flowing cardiac catheterisation has been linked to flow reduction and prolonged compression. We investigate whether these factors can be optimised following transradial cardiac catheterisation by using an accelerated...

Objectives This study aimed to examine the 30-day unplanned readmissions rate, predictors of readmission, causes of readmissions, and clinical impact of readmissions after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Background Unplanned rehospital... Read More about Burden of 30-day readmissions after PCI in 824,747 patients in the USA: predictors, causes and cost.
