Methods: We studied 222,660 consecutive cases of men and women from the National Inpatient Sample registry with AMI who underwent PCI in 2009. The relationship between gender, post-PCI VC and 30-day in-hospital all-cause mortality was compared. We then examined the association between RFs, VC and mortality among men and women. Results: 71,031 women and 151,630 men underwent PCI for AMI. 4,565 (6.4%) women and 5,229 (3.5%) men had a VC. Of those with VC, 331 women (7.3%) and 200 men (3.8%) died. After covariate adjustments women were more likely to have a VC (OR=1.79; 95% CI 1.72-1.87) and more likely to die within 30 days (OR=1.61; 95% CI 1.31-1.95) compared to men. Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) was associated with increased VC and mortality while hyperlipidemia had the opposite relationship. Obesity was associated with increased VC but reduced mortality while diabetes had the reverse association (Table). Conclusions: Female gender is a significant independent RF for VC and mortality post-PCI in AMI. To close this gender gap, future studies are needed to understand the role of PVD, hyperlipidemia and the reverse diabetes paradox.

background: Data suggest women have higher rates of vascular complications (VCs) and mortality than men following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) during hospitalization for an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Which risk factors (RFs) make women susceptible and if gender remains predictive of VCs in a large, contemporary, nationally representative cohort is unknown.

methods: We studied 222,660 consecutive cases of men and women from the National Inpatient Sample registry with AMI who underwent PCI in 2009. The relationship between gender, post-PCI VC and 30-day in-hospital all-cause mortality was compared. We then examined the association between RFs, VC and mortality among men and women.

results: 71,031 women and 151,630 men underwent PCI for AMI. 4,565 (6.4%) women and 5,229 (3.5%) men had a VC. Of those with VC, 331 women (7.3%) and 200 men (3.8%) died. After covariate adjustments women were more likely to have a VC (OR=1.79; 95% CI 1.72-1.87) and more likely to die within 30 days (OR=1.61; 95% CI 1.31-1.95) compared to men. Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) was associated with increased VC and mortality while hyperlipidemia had the opposite relationship. Obesity was associated with increased VC but reduced mortality while diabetes had the reverse association (Table).

Conclusions: Female gender is a significant independent RF for VC and mortality post-PCI in AMI. To close this gender gap, future studies are needed to understand the role of PVD, hyperlipidemia and the reverse diabetes paradox.
