e18631 Background: Patients with localized and advanced malignancy are usually excluded from randomized clinical trials of drug-eluting stents and anti-platelet therapy. We aimed to evaluate short term outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents (DES) in patients with localized and metastatic malignancy. Methods: Analysis from the Nationwide inpatient sample January 2016 to December 2018 of patients with localized and advanced malignancy admitted for a percutaneous coronary intervention with drug-eluting stents. Primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes were post-procedural complications and healthcare-utilization. Multivariate regression analysis was performed to adjust for confounders. Results: During 2016 – 2018 a total of weighted 1, 244, 550 PCI with DES were performed. 97.9 % in patients without cancer, 1.6% (n=21,125) patients with localized cancer and 0.3 % (n=4,765) with metastatic cancer. During hospitalization patient with cancer were more likely to develop respiratory failure, need for mechanical ventilation, AKI, and to receive blood products. After multivariate regression analysis patients with localized malignancy did not have any difference in-hospital mortality, total charges, cost, cardiac arrest or post procedural bleeding but had less LOS, respiratory failure, AKI requiring HD, post-procedural CVA and higher post-procedural blood transfusion when compared with patients without cancer. Conclusions: Patients with metastatic malignancy have higher in-hospital mortality when compared to patients without cancer. Patients with localized or advanced malignancy do not have higher in hospital complications. Blood transfusion is higher in patients with malignancy but is not related to procedure.[Table: see text]

Background Over five million Americans suffer from heart failure (HF), and this is associated with multiple chronic comorbidities and recurrent decompensation. Currently, there is an increased incidence in vaccine‐preventable diseases (VPDs). We aim to investigate the impact of HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in patients hospitalized with VPDs. Hypothesis Patient with HFrEF are at higher risk for VPDs and they carry a higher risk for in‐hospital complications. Methods Retrospective analysis from all hospital admissions from the 2016‐2018 National Inpatient Sample (NIS) using the ICD‐10CM codes for patients admitted with a primary diagnosis of VPDs with HFrEF and those without reduced ejection fraction. Outcomes evaluated were in‐hospital mortality, length of stay (LOS), healthcare utilization, frequency of admissions, and in‐hospital complications. Multivariate regression analysis was conducted to adjust for confounders. Results Out of 317 670 VPDs discharges, we identified 12 130 (3.8%) patients with HFrEF as a comorbidity. The most common admission diagnosis for VPDs was influenza virus (IV) infection (75.0% vs. 64.1%; p < .01), followed by pneumococcal pneumonia (PNA) (13% vs. 9.4%; p < .01). After adjusting for confounders, patients with HFrEF had higher odds of having diagnosis of IV (adjusted [aOR], 1.42; p < .01) and PNA (aOR, 1.27; p < .01). Patients with VPDs and HFrEF had significantly higher odds of mortality (aOR, 1.76; p < .01), LOS, respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation, and mechanical ventilation for less than 96 h. Conclusion Influenza and PNA were the most common VPDs admitted to the hospital in patients with a concomitant diagnosis of HFrEF. They were associated with increased mortality and in‐hospital complications.
