This article presents the findings of the Spanish Society of Cardiology registry of cardiac catheterization and interventional cardiology in the year 2004. Data were obtained from 121 centers, which comprise almost all cardiac catheterization laboratories in Spain. Of these, 110 performed catheterization mainly in adults, and 11 carried out procedures in only pediatric patients. In 2005, 111,451 diagnostic catheterization procedures were performed, including 97,785 coronary angiograms. This was 6.6% higher than in 2003. The population-adjusted rate was 2263 coronary angiograms per million inhabitants. A total of 45,469 coronary interventions were performed, 12% more than in 2003. The population-adjusted rate was 1052 per million inhabitants. Coronary stents were used in 91.4% of procedures; 68,892 stents were implanted, which was 12% more than in 2003. Of these, 25,148 (36.5%) were drug-eluting stents. Some 7326 percutaneous coronary interventions were carried out in patients with acute myocardial infarction, 20.5% more than in 2003. These accounted for 16.1% of all percutaneous coronary interventions. Among non-coronary interventions, there was a decrease in the number of percutaneous mitral valvuloplasties (8%) and atrial septal defect closures (7%). In addition, there was a small increase in pediatric interventions (12%). Finally, it is important to note that the percentage of centers participating in the registry was high, what ensures that the data presented here are highly representative of the work carried out in cardiac catheterization laboratories in Spain.
