Notes on Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Wait Times

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Statistics

for the Three Months Ending August 31, 2008.

This table shows how many adult patients have percutaneous coronary intervention at each of Ontario's hospital cardiac centres and how long they usually wait for the procedure. This information is provided to help doctors and patients in the referral process for treatment of heart disease.

There are notes below the table explaining the information. All patients accepted for percutaneous coronary intervention by an interventional cardiologist are registered on the Cardiac Care Network of Ontario's (CCN) computer system. Waiting times are monitored until patients have their procedure. If you have questions about a centre's statistics, please check with the centre.
