Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the long-term effectiveness of ultrathin-strut drug-eluting stents (DES) to conventional 2nd-generation thin-strut DES in patients undergoing coronary interventions, building on previous findings of reduced target lesion failure (TLF) rates with ultrathin-strut DES.!
- A meta-analysis of 16 randomized controlled trials with over 20,000 patients found that ultrathin-strut DES led to a 15% decrease in long-term TLF risk, primarily due to a 25% reduction in clinically driven target lesion revascularization.!
- Overall, after an average follow-up of 2.5 years, ultrathin-strut DES showed better long-term outcomes compared
