D-dimer as a thrombus biomarker for predicting 2-year mortality after percutaneous coronary intervention

Abstract: Background: D-dimer has predictive value for mortality in some diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between D-dimer and mortality in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: We examined 10,724 consecutive patients who underwent PCI between January 2013 and December 2013. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality, and the secondary endpoint was cardiac mortality. Patients were divided according to the median D-dimer level of 0.28 μg/ml. Multivariable model were… Show more

“…Elevated plasma levels of D-dimer have been proven to be associated with subsequent thrombotic events and are extensively used to diagnose venous thromboembolism (VTE) [3][4][5]. Previous studies showed that D-dimer levels could predict adverse outcomes, including fatal events in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), in terms of both short-term outcomes and long-term follow-up [5][6][7][8][9][10].…”

“…infarction [20,21]. It has also been suggested that D-dimer may be an independent predictor of 2-year mortality after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with coronary artery diseas [22]. D-dimer has also been shown to correlate with coronary SYNTAX II score and Gensini score in patients with coronary heart disease [4,23].…”
