Predictors of complications after sheath removal following percutaneous coronary interventional procedures.
This study explored whether a combination of independent variables predicts the development of severe complications after sheath removal following percutaneous coronary interventional procedures. The findings indicate it is possible to predict which patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventional procedures might develop complications following sheath removal. This knowledge of patients at risk should help improve care.
