PG - 101733 LID - S0146-2806(23)00150-0 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.cpcardiol.2023.101733 [doi] AB - We aimed to evaluate longitudinal trends of racial and ethnic disparities in the utilization of diagnostic angiograms, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) for non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We retrospectively analyzed the National Inpatient Sample (2005-2019). The 15-year period was divided into 5, 3-year periods. Our study included 9 million adult patients (NSTEMI, 72%; STEMI, 28%). No improvement in utilization of these procedures was seen in period 5 (2017-2019) vs period 1 (2005-2007) for both NSTEMI and STEMI in non-White patients vs White patients (P > 0.05 for all comparisons), excepting in CABG for STEMI in Black patients vs White patients (difference in CABG rate: period 1, 2.6%; period 5, 1.4%; P = 0.03). Reducing disparities in PCI for NSTEMI and both PCI and CABG for STEMI in Black patients vs White patients was associated with improved outcomes. CI - Copyright (c) 2023 Elsevier Inc.
