The future of drug eluting stents [PDF]
In-stent restenosis (ISR) is the major drawback of percutaneous coronary interventions, occurring in 10–40% of patients. Drug eluting stents (DES) are successful in a large majority of patients in preventing restenosis for the first year after implantation.

Safety and efficacy of sirolimus- and paclitaxel-eluting coronary stents. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The safety of drug-eluting stents has been called into question by recent reports of increased stent thrombosis, myocardial infarction, and death.

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 ...

A novel method of thrombelastograph analysis aids assessment of antiplatelet therapy in percutaneous coronary intervention. [PDF]
MD (Research)Background A near-patient test of responses to antiplatelet therapy would be of great value in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, at present, there are no widely accepted tests and varied definitions of “resistance”.

Paclitaxel-eluting stents versus bare-metal stents in acute myocardial infarction. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: There is no consensus regarding the safety and efficacy of drug-eluting stents, as compared with bare-metal stents, in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction who are undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)

Although safety profiles of sirolimus-eluting stents do not seem to differ in short-to-medium term from those of bare-metal stents, late stent thrombosis after deployment of drug-eluting stents has emerged as a potential safety concern in the era of high-

Very late stent thrombosis occurs more frequently with drug-eluting stents and tends to occur despite dual antiplatelet therapy or after long periods of clopidogrel discontinuation.

Approximately, 10-20% of patients with drug eluting stent (DES) in-stent restenosis (ISR) will develop recurrent ISR; yet, the optimal management of recurrent DES-ISR is unknown. We sought to compare the outcomes of recurrent DES-ISR treated with drug eluting balloons (DEB) to those with repeated implantation of new-generation DES.A total of 172 ...
