Overview

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), commonly known as coronary angioplasty, is an invasive cardiologic therapeutic procedure to treat the stenotic (narrowed) coronary arteries of the heart. These stenotic segments are due to the build up of cholesterol-laden plaques that form due to coronary heart disease.

Percutaneous coronary intervention can be performed to reduce or eliminate the symptoms of coronary artery disease, including angina (chest pain), dyspnea (shortness of breath) on exertion, and congestive heart failure. PCI is also used to abort an acute myocardial infarction, and in some specific cases it may reduce mortality.

Epidemiology and Demographics

  • Approximately 850,000 PCIs are performed each year in the United States.

2011 ACCF/AHA/SCAI Guideline Recommendations: CAD Revascularization [1]

ACCF/AHA Guidelines for Heart Team Approach to Revascularization Decisions[1]

Class I

"1. A Heart Team approach to revascularization is recommended in patients with unprotected left main or complex CAD. [2][3][4] (Level of Evidence: C)"

Class IIa

"1. Calculation of the Society of Thoracic Surgeons and SYNTAX (Synergy between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention with TAXUS and Cardiac Surgery) scores is reasonable in patients with unprotected left main and complex CAD. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] (Level of Evidence: B)"

ACCF/AHA Guidelines for Revascularization to Improve Survival: Left Main Coronary Artery Disease[1]

Class III (Harm)

"1. PCI to improve survival should not be performed in stable patients with significant (greater than or equal to 50% diameter stenosis) unprotected left main CAD who have unfavorable anatomy for PCI and who are good candidates for CABG. [5][7][8][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] (Level of Evidence: B)"

Class IIa

"1. PCI to improve survival is reasonable as an alternative to CABG in selected stable patients with significant (greater than or equal to 50% diameter stenosis) unprotected left main CAD with:

a. Anatomic conditions associated with a low risk of PCI procedural complications and a high likelihood of good long-term outcome (e.g., a low SYNTAX score [lower than or equal to 22], ostial or trunk left main CAD); and (Level of Evidence: B)
b. Clinical characteristics that predict a significantly increased risk of adverse surgical outcomes (e.g., Society of Thoracic Surgeons–predicted risk of operative mortality 5%). [5][7][8][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] (Level of Evidence: B)"

"2. PCI to improve survival is reasonable in patients with UA/NSTEMI when an unprotected left main coronary artery is the culprit lesion and the patient is not a candidate for CABG. [8][25][37][27][28][33][34][35][36][38] (Level of Evidence: B)"

"3. PCI to improve survival is reasonable in patients with acute STEMI when an unprotected left main coronary artery is the culprit lesion, distal coronary flow is less than TIMI (Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction) grade 3, and PCI can be performed more rapidly and safely than CABG. [22][39][40] (Level of Evidence: C)"

Class IIb

"1. PCI to improve survival may be reasonable as an alternative to CABG in selected stablepatients with significant (greater than or equal to 50% diameter stenosis) unprotected left main CAD with:

a. Anatomic conditions associated with a low to intermediate risk of PCI procedural complicationsand an intermediate to high likelihood of good long-term outcome (e.g., low-intermediateSYNTAX score of lower than 33, bifurcation left main CAD); and (Level of Evidence: B)
b. Clinical characteristics that predict an increased risk of adverse surgical outcomes (e.g., moderate-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, disability from previous stroke, or previous cardiac surgery; Society of Thoracic Surgeons–predicted risk of operative mortality greater than 2%). [5][7][8][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][41] (Level of Evidence: B)"

ACCF/AHA Guidelines for Revascularization to Improve Survival: Non-Left Main Coronary Artery Disease[1]

Class I

"1. CABG or PCI to improve survival is beneficial in survivors of sudden cardiac deathwith presumed ischemia-mediated ventricular tachycardia caused by significant (greater than or equal to 70% diameter) stenosis in a major coronary artery. (CABG (Level of Evidence: B) [42][43][44]; PCI (Level of Evidence: C) [42])"

Class III (Harm)

"1. CABG or PCI should not be performed with the primary or sole intent to improve survival in patients with stable ischemic heart disease with 1 or morecoronary stenoses that are not anatomically or functionally significant (e.g., greater than 70% diameter non–left main coronary artery stenosis, fractional flow reserve 0.80, no or only mild ischemia on noninvasive testing), involve only the left circumflex or right coronary artery, or subtend only a small area of viable myocardium. [18][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52](Level of Evidence: B)"

Class IIa

"1. It is reasonable to choose CABG over PCI to improve survival in patients with complex3-vessel CAD (e.g., SYNTAX score greater than 22) with or without involvement of the proximal LAD artery who are good candidates for CABG. [53][54][21][19][55] (Level of Evidence: B)"

"2. CABG is probably recommended in preference to PCI to improve survival in patients withmultivessel CAD and diabetes mellitus, particularly if a left internal mammary artery graft can be anastomosed to the LAD artery. [56][57][58][59][55][60][61][62][63] (Level of Evidence: B)"

Class IIb

"1. The usefulness of PCI to improve survival is uncertain in patients with 2- or 3-vessel CAD (with or without involvement of the proximal LAD artery) or 1-vessel proximal LAD disease. [14][45][53][64] (Level of Evidence: B)"

Class III (Harm)

"1. CABG orPCI to improve symptoms should not be performed in patients who do not meet anatomic (greater than 50% left main or greater than 70% non–left main stenosis) or physiological (e.g., abnormal fractional flow reserve) criteria for revascularization. (Level of Evidence: C)"

Class IIa

"1. CABG orPCI to improve symptoms is reasonable in patients with 1 or more significant (greater than 70% diameter) coronary artery stenoses and unacceptable angina for whom guideline-directed medical therapy cannot be implemented because of medication contraindications, adverse effects, or patient preferences. (Level of Evidence: C)"

"2. PCI to improve symptoms is reasonable in patients with previous CABG, 1 or more significant (greater than 70% diameter) coronary artery stenoses associated with ischemia, and unacceptable anginadespite guideline-directed medical therapy. [66][69][72] (Level of Evidence: C)"

"3. It is reasonable to choose CABG over PCI to improve symptoms in patients with complex 3-vessel CAD (e.g.,SYNTAX score greater than 22), with or without involvement of the proximal LAD artery who are good candidates for CABG. [21][19][54][55](Level of Evidence: B)"

Class IIb

"1. CABG to improve symptoms might be reasonable for patients with previous CABG, 1 or more significant (greater than 70% diameter) coronary artery stenoses not amenable to PCI, and unacceptable angina despite guideline-directed medical therapy. [73] (Level of Evidence: C)"

ACCF/AHA Guidelines for Clinical factors that may influence the choice of revascularization: Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Compliance and Stent Thrombosis[1]

Class III (Harm)

"1. PCI with coronary stenting (BMS or DES) should not be performed if the patient is not likely to be able to tolerate and comply with dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for the appropriate duration of treatment based on the type of stent implanted. [84][85][86][87](Level of Evidence: B)"

2011 ACCF/AHA/SCAI Guideline Recommendations: Pre-procedural Considerations [1]

"2. Patients undergoing cardiac catheterization with contrast media should receive adequate preparatory hydration.[90][91][92][93] (Level of Evidence: B)"

"3. In patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) (creatinine clearance ≤60 mL/min), the volume of contrast media should be minimized.[94][95][96] (Level of Evidence: B)"

ACCF/AHA Guidelines for Statin Treatment[1]

Class IIa

"1. Administration of a high-dose statin is reasonable before PCI to reduce the risk of peri-procedural myocardial infarction. (Level of Evidence: A for statin-naïve patients) [97][98][99][100][101][102][103]; (Level of Evidence: B for those on chronic statin therapy) [104]"

(Level of Evidence: C)"

Class IIa

"1. Primary PCI is reasonable in hospitals without on-site cardiac surgery, provided that appropriate planning for program development has been accomplished.[105][106] (Level of Evidence: B)"

Class IIb

"1. Elective PCI might be considered in hospitals without on-site cardiac surgery, provided that appropriate planning for program development has been accomplished and rigorous clinical and angiographic criteria are used for proper patient selection.[106][107][108] (Level of Evidence: B)"

Procedure

The term balloon angioplasty is commonly used to describe percutaneous coronary intervention, which describes the inflation of a balloon within the coronary artery to crush the plaque into the walls of the artery. While balloon angioplasty is still done as a part of nearly all percutaneous coronary interventions, it is rarely the only procedure performed.

Other procedures that are done during a percutaneous coronary intervention include:

Balloon angioplasty is now used to facilitate stent deployment.

Coronary Stents

[1]

Class I
