Last week an expert panel of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommended that the FDA should issue warnings to doctors and patients about drug eluting coronary stents. The safety of such stents is unclear except in low risk patients. Furthermore, patients with drug eluting stents should take antiplatelet therapy for at least one year after ...

In their recent systematic review, Suzanne Ligthart and associates compared analyses of the cost-effectiveness of drug-eluting stents.[1][1] They found that in most studies in which an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio greater than $50 000 per quality-adjusted life-year was calculated the ...

Stent thrombosis and drug-eluting stents [PDF]
Coronary stents have been used for the treatment of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), and significantly improved procedural safety and are associated with a lower rate of restenosis compared with balloon angioplasty alone. Drug-eluting stents (DES) have been dominant for the treatment of CAD with efficacy in significantly reducing both ...

Progress in treatment by percutaneous coronary intervention: The stent of the future [PDF]
First generation drug-eluting stents have considerably reduced in-stent restenosis and broadened the applications of percutaneous coronary interventions for the treatment of coronary artery disease.

Randomized Comparison of Everolimus-Eluting and Sirolimus-Eluting Stents in Patients Treated With Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: The Scandinavian Organization for Randomized Trials With Clinical Outcome IV (SORT OUT IV) [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Among drug-eluting stents released to date, the sirolimus-eluting stent has demonstrated the least amount of late lumen loss, but its efficacy and safety have not been compared head-to-head with the next-generation everolimus-eluting stent ...

A polymer coated cicaprost-eluting stent increases neointima formation and impairs vessel function in the rabbit iliac artery [PDF]
Drug-eluting stents have been successful in reducing in-stent restenosis but are not suitable for all lesion types and have been implicated in causing late stent thrombosis due to incomplete regeneration of the endothelial cell layer.

An Analysis of Cost-Effectiveness of Stents Used in the Treatment of Coronary Artery Disease
Background: There is only limited information about the cost-effectiveness of drug-eluting stents compared with bare-metal stents in Turkey. Aims: To evaluate bare-metal and drug-eluting stents used in the treatment of coronary artery disease from the ...

Pharmacokinetic analysis after implantation of everolimus-eluting self-expanding stents in the peripheral vasculature [PDF]
Background: A novel self-expanding drug-eluting stent was designed to release everolimus 225 mu g/cm(2) to prevent restenosis following peripheral arterial intervention.
