Example sentences for: pci
How can you use “pci” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
As was the case with CABS, PCI rates were lower in veterans than in the other 2 settings.
CEC = clinical events committee; CK-MB = creatine kinase-myocardial band; ECG = electrocardiography; MI = myocardial infarction; PCI = percutaneous coronary intervention; PURSUIT = Platelet Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa in Unstable Angina: Receptor Suppression Using Integrilin (Eptifibatide) Therapy; ULN = upper limit of normal.
These data exclude MIs associated with PCI or bypass surgery; by definition, those types of MI required enzyme elevations greater than three or five times the upper limit of normal (ULN), respectively.
However, in the VA starting in 1996 there was a noticeable decline in the age-adjusted rates of both PCI and CABS; this decline was also evident in the National Hospital Discharge Survey for CABS.
For patients with MI identified by the CEC but not by the site investigator (excluding events after PCI or bypass surgery), we therefore assigned a level of clinical certainty.
