Major adverse cardiac and bleeding events associated with non-cardiac surgery in coronary artery disease patients with or without prior percutaneous coronary intervention

The rate of MACEs following NCS was not significantly different between the PCI and no-PCI groups, while the rate of bleeding events was higher in the PCI group without reaching statistical significance. This study suggests that patients with stable CAD may be able to safely undergo NCS without revascularization even in the presence of significant coronary artery stenosis.
