Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To collect data on percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) performed in inland of China. METHODS: Questionnaires on PCI were distributed to all hospitals capable of performing PCI through national society of cardiology. Data from 2006 and 2007 were reported in this report. RESULTS: (1) In 2007, 144,673 PCI were performed in 870 hospitals compared to 112,580 PCI performed in 1078 hospitals in 2006. Number of PCI in 2007 increased more rapidly compared to 2006 in three provinces (Fujian 327.3%; Anhui 115.1% and Guangdong 86.9%). (2) In 2007, the number of PCI performed in ten provinces accounted for 66.7% of total PCI in inland of China (Beijing 15.4%; Guangdong 8.0%; Liaoning 6.9%; Shandong 6.9%; Shanghai 6.1%; Henan 5.8%; Zhejiang 4.7%; Jiangsu 4.4%; Shanxi 4.4% and Hebei 4.2%). (3) There were 299 (34.4%) hospitals with PCI number more than 100 in 2007 compared with 290 (29.6%) hospitals in 2006; there were 507 hospitals with PCI numbers less than 50 in 2006. (4) In 2006, there were 86,974 patients received PCI in 672 hospitals and 135,658 stents were implanted and 97.8% of implanted stents were drug eluting stents (DES). CONCLUSION: From 2006 to 2007, number of PCI increased significantly in inland of China, there were about 50% hospitals with PCI number less than 50 per year and 1.56 stents per patient were implanted and 97.8% implanted stents were DES.
