Reduce the Risk: PCI Bleed Toolkit
The ACC has curated evidence-based tools to help you decrease PCI bleeding at your facility. Click on each section to find targeted tools for each Campaign metric:
Metric 1: in-hospital risk-standardized rate of bleeding events for all PCI patients.
Metric 2: Proportion of PCI procedures with transfusion of whole blood or red blood cells.
Metric 3: Procedures with an observed bleeding event.
Metric 4: Anticoagulation utilization.
Metric 5: Access site utilization.
Metric 6: Method for closure for arterial access site.
