Abstract: Objective To detect the impact of Diltiazem on the major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in six months after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods A total of 192 patients after PCI with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease were enrolled in this study.The patients were randomly divided into Diltiazem therapy group (101 patients) and non-Diltiazem therapy group (91 patients).The high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) was assessed before and 24 h after PCI,and the incidence of Major adverse cardiovascular events(MACEs) were assessed at the sixth month after PCI.Results Compared with before PCI,hs-CRP level increased significantly in both group after PCI (P＜0.01),but hs-CRP level was lower in Diltiazem therapy group than in non-Diltiazem therapy group (P＜0.05).Compared with non-Diltiazem therapy group,there was lower incidence of MACEs during six months follow-up in Diltiazem therapy group.Conclusions Diltiazem can decrease the incidence of MACEs during six months after PCI.
