Background: While the superiority of reabsorbable-polymer drug-eluting stents (RP-DES) over bare-metal stents and first-generation durable-polymer (DP)-DES has been largely established, their advantage compared with new-generation DP-DES is still controversial. This study aimed was to compare clinical outcomes of all-comer patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with new generation DP-DES or RP-DES implantation.
Methods: We prospectively enrolled 679 consecutive patients treated with PCI with RP-DES or DP-DES.
Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Orsiro sirolimus-eluting stent in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction receiving primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI), believing that certain stent types can impact success rates over time.
- Researchers retrospectively analyzed 353 patients who received Orsiro stents across 9 Italian centers between 2012 and 2016, focusing on major cardiac events and complications during follow-up periods of 6 months, 1 year, and 3 years.
- Results showed a low 1-year incidence of device-related complications, including a 3.7% rate of major cardiac issues, indicating that the Or
Background: Sirolimus-coated balloons (SCBs) represent a novel therapeutic option for both in-stent restenosis (ISR) and de novo coronary lesions treatment, especially in small vessels. Our registry sought to evaluate the procedural and clinical outcomes of such devices in a complex acute coronary syndrome (ACS) clinical setting.
Methods And Results: We treated 74 consecutive patients with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with at least 1 SCB used for ISR and/or de novo coronary lesion in small vessels at our institution.
