Abstract

OBJECTIVES: The authors used the BCIS (British Cardiovascular Intervention Society) database to define the factors associated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedural complexity. BACKGROUND: Complex high-risk indicated percutaneous coronary intervention (CHIP-PCI) is an emerging concept that is poorly defined. METHODS: The BCIS (British Cardiovascular Intervention Society) database was used to study all PCI procedures in the United Kingdom 2006-2016. A multiple logistic regression model was developed to identify variables associated with in-hospital major adverse cardiac or cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and to construct a CHIP score. The cumulative effect of this score on patient outcomes was examined. RESULTS: A total of 313,054 patients were included. Seven patient factors (age =80 years, female sex, previous stroke, previous myocardial infarction, peripheral vascular disease, ejection fraction <30%, and chronic renal disease) and 6 procedural factors (rotational atherectomy, left main PCI, 3-vessel PCI, dual arterial access, left ventricular mechanical support, and total lesion length >60 mm) were associated with increased in-hospital MACCE and defined as CHIP factors. The mean CHIP score/case for all PCIs increased significantly from 1.06 ± 1.32 in 2006 to 1.49 ± 1.58 in 2016 (P < 0.001 for trend). A CHIP score of 5 or more was present in 2.5% of procedures in 2006 increasing to 5.3% in 2016 (P < 0.001 for trend). Overall in-hospital MACCE was 0.6% when the CHIP score was 0 compared with 1.2% with any CHIP factor present (P < 0.001). As the CHIP score increased, an exponential increase in-hospital MACCE was observed. The cumulative MACCE for procedures associated with a CHIP score 4+ or above was 3.2%, and for a CHIP score 5+ was 4.4%. All other adverse clinical outcomes were more likely as the CHIP score increased. CONCLUSIONS: Seven patient factors and 6 procedural factors were associated with adverse in-hospital MACCE and defined as CHIP factors. Use of a CHIP score might be a future target for risk modification.
