Procedural and follow-up clinical outcomes after chronic total occlusion revascularization: Data from an Indian public hospital.

CONCLUSIONS: The success rates for CTO PCI in this registry were about 87%. Immediate and long-term clinical outcomes were better with lower MACE (5%) after a successful procedure. A key outcome variable included an increase in LVEF among patients after a successful CTO PCI. The overall periprocedural complications were about 5.5%, but majority were non-life threatening.
