Abstract 21: Post-Coronary Revascularization Mortality in Diabetes Patients With and Without End-Stage Renal Disease: Do Outcome Disparities Exist? [Session Title: Predicting the Future]

Conclusions: Results suggest existence of SES and racial disparities in in-hospital post-coronary revascularization mortality in CAD-DM patients independently of the type of procedure, presence of ESRD, comorbidities and demographic covariates. Further studies investigating the responsible mechanisms for these outcome disparities – possibly, disparities in the realized access to primary care – are warranted.
