ABSTRACT Background Chronic coronary total occlusions (CTO) represent a therapeutic challenge, and results of randomized clinical trials and observational studies comparing conservative treatment versus percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are underpowered.

Development of coronary stents using advanced results of materials science and technology [PDF]
Stents are high tech endovascular implants. K&M Inc. is the single Eastern European stent producer company. The market needs more biocompatible devices as the trend of the stent development all the producers have to react.

ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is increasingly used to treat coronary artery calcification (CAC). This study aimed to identify clinical and procedural factors associated with IVL treatment success. Methods This retrospective analysis included 454 patients (73 ± 9 years, 75% male) treated with IVL from the multicenter BENELUX‐IVL ...

ABSTRACT Background There is limited evidence on the safety and efficacy of biodegradable‐polymer sirolimus‐eluting ultra‐thin stent (BP‐SES) in patients at high bleeding risk (HBR) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Aims This study aims to evaluate the clinical outcomes of HBR patients treated with BP‐SES and ≤ 30‐day dual ...

Drug-eluting stents are a commonly used treatment for coronary artery disease. However, the coatings used in drug-eluting stents have some limitations such as poor biocompatibility and drug loading capacity.

Patient-specific coronary angioplasty simulations -- a mixed-dimensional finite element modeling approach [PDF]
Coronary angioplasty with stent implantation is the most frequently used interventional treatment for coronary artery disease. However, reocclusion within the stent, referred to as in-stent restenosis, occurs in up to 10% of lesions. It is widely accepted that mechanical loads on the vessel wall strongly affect adaptive and maladaptive mechanisms. Yet,
