Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP) Cochin Hospital, Paris 5 Medical School Rene Descartes University and INSERM U780, Paris, France.
Background: Sirolimus-eluting stents reduce rates of restenosis and reintervention, as compared with uncoated stents. Data are limited regarding the safety and efficacy of such stents in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation.
Methods: We performed a single-blind, multicenter, prospectively randomized trial to compare sirolimus-eluting stents with uncoated stents in primary PCI for acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation.
