Bleeding is the most common complication after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It is associated with major adverse outcomes including mortality, morbidity, prolonged hospital stay and increased healthcare costs. PCI-related bleeding complications are predictable, preventable and is an ideal target for quality improvement through adopting an established bleeding predictor tool.
