1.6 Measure Description

This measure estimates hospital risk-standardized 30-day all-cause mortality rate following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) among patients who are 18 years of age or older with STEMI or cardiogenic shock at the time of procedure. The measure uses clinical data available in the National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) CathPCI Registry for risk adjustment. For the purpose of development and testing, the measure cohort was derived in a Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) population of patients 65 years of age or older with a PCI. For the purpose of maintenance, the measure used a cohort of patients whose vital status was determined from the National Death Index (which reflects an all-payor sample as opposed to only the Medicare population). This is consistent with the measure’s intent to be applicable to the full population of PCI patients.
