PCI

PCI - As a regional referral center, Genesis does treat both simple and complex ischemic disease. Genesis patients that are undergoing PCI procedures are more often have had a prior hear attack, prior bypass surgery, and are more likely to present with depressed left ventricular function than patients at other comparable hospitals.
PCI - Adjunctive Care - It is important to optimize outcomes for PCI procedures. Receiving appropriate and timely adjunctive care before and after PCI procedures has been recognized as an important performance measure by the American College of Cardiology (ACC). Genesis physicians administer these medications more frequently than comparable ACC/NCDR hospitals.
PCI Complications - After adjustments for complexity and severity of illness, the mortality of PCI procedures at Genesis are lower than the national averages reported by the American College of Cardiology - National Cardiovascular Data Registry (ACC - NCDR).

Diagnostic Cardiac Catheterization Complications (no PCI) - including acute myocardial infarction (MI), emergent coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, stroke, and death was 0.01 percent or less.
