The Effect of Coronary Revascularization Treatment Timing on Mortality in Patients with Stable Ischemic Heart Disease in British Columbia
EF 2023-24
Résumé
Doctors use two procedures to restore blood flow in patients with heart disease - bypass surgery or stenting. Bypass surgery has generally better results for treating multiple blocked arteries, but these studies didn’t include patients who had delayed surgery. I used a patient registry, hospital records, and vital statistics records to find treatment results for patients who had delayed surgery compared to timely stenting in patients with stable ischemic heart disease in BC. I found that patients who had delayed bypass surgery had fewer deaths, fewer cardiovascular events, and fewer repeat revascularization than patients who had timely stenting.

Abstract
Doctors use two procedures to restore blood flow in patients with heart disease - bypass surgery or stenting. Bypass surgery has generally better results for treating multiple blocked arteries, but these studies didn’t include patients who had delayed surgery. I used a patient registry, hospital records, and vital statistics records to find treatment results for patients who had delayed surgery compared to timely stenting in patients with stable ischemic heart disease in BC. I found that patients who had delayed bypass surgery had fewer deaths, fewer cardiovascular events, and fewer repeat revascularization than patients who had timely stenting.
