High rate of uncovered struts in latest generation drug-eluting stents with durable, biodegradable polymer or lack of it 1 month after implantation

REC: Interventional Cardiology (English Ed.), 2023
Introduction and objectives: Delayed vascular healing may induce late stent thrombosis. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is useful to evaluate endothelial coverage. The objective of this study was to compare stent coverage and apposition in non-complex

Biodegradable Polymers

, 2023
The increasing environmental pollution is causing dramatic changes in the ecosystem. The search for solutions to this problem includes the development of new materials using more sustainable resources and processes, the development of biodegradable materials and the use of natural additives to tune the biodegradability of these materials.

Factors Influencing 1st and 2nd Generation Drug-Eluting Stent Performance: Understanding the Basic Pharmaceutical Drug-in-Polymer Formulation Factors Contributing to Stent Thrombosis Do We Really Need to Eliminate the Polymer?

Journal of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2021
Drug-eluting stents (DES) have a major role in treating cardiovascular disease. The evolution of bare metal stents into 1st generation durable-polymer DES (DP-DES) reduced the rate of in-stent restenosis (ISR) and the need for repeat-revascularization ...
