A NEW preventative treatment for heart attacks could cut repeat problems in victims and save lives, doctors believe.Western Mail (Cardiff, Wales)
Coronary stenting is commonly performed for coronary revascularization to improve the blood flow in the myocardium. The long-term clinical outcome depends upon the patency of the stents. It has been recognized in the guidelines of American Heart Association that CCTA assessment for the patency of cor...
Coronary artery aneurysm after coronary interventions are rare but variable (0.2%-1.7%) clinicopathological entity depending on whether a incidental or a routine 6 monthly angiographic follow up finding and is seen more common with drug eluting stents (DES) rather than bare metal stents (BMS). It...
agent, an anti-growth factor, and an extracellular matrix (ECM) molecule coated on a stent to prevent acute and subacute thrombosis, enhance endothelial in-growth, and prevent neointimal hyperplasia, and/or suppress neovascularization, and thereby reduce restenosis rates for drug eluting stents. The...
Due to the severe ostial left main artery lesion, initial wire position in the LAD had to be obtained without guide catheter engagement. After pre-dilations, 2 subsequent drug-eluting stents were successfully deployed in the LAD artery extending back into the left main artery. A third drug-...

in Group A,the stenotic degree of the lesions before procedures was 70%～98%, and the residual stenosis after procedures were less than 10%.Except one patient had TIA once,neither new stroke nor TIA had happened.No significant intima hyperplasia was detected inside the stents.In the Group B...

The purpose of this randomized study was to compare sirolimus-eluting stenting with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for patients with unprotec...

A plurality of radio frequency semi-passive transponders are attached to an animal's organ, such as the heart. Each semi-passive transponder may be attached to the surface of the organ or mounted on a stent that is implanted in a blood vessel of the organ. An interrogator periodically sends...
