    Intrinsic capacity (IC) is a significant predictor of all-cause and cardiovascular rehospitalization in CAD patients post-PCI.

  • 2

    A higher IC score, indicating poorer intrinsic capacity, correlates with increased rehospitalization risk after PCI.

  • 3

    The study utilized nurse-administered questionnaires to assess IC within 48 hours of patient admission.

  • 4

    Subgroup analyses confirmed the relationship between IC scores and rehospitalization risk across various patient demographics.

  • 5

    IC score is a robust tool for clinical risk stratification in CAD patients, emphasizing the need for personalized care.
