| Abstract |
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the elderly is a major hospital burden since this group of patients exhibits high mortality rates and many comorbidities. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of a transradial intervention (TRI) approach for PCI on bleeding complications in octogenarians. We retrospectively analyzed a consecutive cohort of 2530 patients who underwent PCI at a tertiary care center in Japan. Octogenarians constituted 12 % (291 cases) of the total PCI cases during the study period. Bleeding complications and all-cause mortality were observed at 30 days after PCI. Average age was 83 ± 3 years and female gender was 32 %. Stable coronary artery disease was 59 %. TRI was performed in 218 patients (75 %) and transfemoral intervention (TFI) in 73 (25 %). Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) major bleeding unrelated to bypass surgery were observed in 7.6 %, which were significantly lower in TRI than TFI (5.1 vs. 15.1 %, P = 0.005). The 30-day mortality rate was significantly low in patients without bleeding (4.9 vs. 31 %, p < 0.0001). In octogenarians, major bleeding complication was significant at 30 days after PCI. TRI had lower bleeding complication rate than TFI in this population. Octogenarians may be a subgroup of patients who derive benefits from TRI. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 February 2016.
All research outputs
#20,311,744
of 22,852,911 outputs
Outputs from Cardiovascular Intervention and Therapeutics
#102
of 129 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#252,335
of 298,866 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cardiovascular Intervention and Therapeutics
#2
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,852,911 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 129 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 1.9. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 298,866 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 8 of them.
