Kurzfassung:
In the past 30 to 40 years, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in China has greatly improved. The State Ministry of Health established a quality control (QC) system in 2009, and all medical centers were required to report their PCI cases. We analyzed the data from the QC system to describe the current status and development of PCI in China. Methods: PCI case data during a period from 2010 to 2018 were extracted from the online QC system. Data quality was audited by QC centers at the provincial level. Statistical analysis was mainly descriptive. Trend analysis was conducted by recoding the year as a continuous variable in linear regression or logistic regression. Results: The number of medical centers reporting PCI cases was 941 in 2010, and increased to 1,788 in 2018. Total number of PCI cases reported online to the QC system was 236,717 in 2010, and increased to 705,970 in 2018. Estimate of the actual case number that included those reported offline only (based on offline audit by provincial QC centers) was 284,936 in 2010, and increased to 915,256 in 2018. The most common indication for PCI was unstable angina (52.9%–59.1%), followed by ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI; 25.0%–27.4%). Majority of the PCI procedures were performed via the radial artery (65.4% in 2010 and 90.7% in 2018). Angiography detected a left main lesion in 5%, single-vessel disease in 38.7% to 44.4%, two-vessel disease in 22.3% to 27.5%, and three-vessel disease in 27.0% to 28.7% of the patients. The rate of primary PCI for STEMI in all STEMI cases was 28.0% in 2010, and increased to 45.9% in 2018. The average number of stents implanted per case was 1.63 in 2010, and decreased to 1.46 in 2018. There was a trend for decreasing mortality (0.31% in 2010; 0.26% in 2018). Conclusions: The number of PCI cases in China increased steadily during a period from 2010 to 2018, with stable mortality rate. Transradial access is the dominant PCI route. The rate of primary PCI for STEMI increased substantially, but remained relatively low.
