Drug-eluting stents for the treatment of coronary artery disease: A review of recent advances

Expert Opinion on Drug Delivery, 2022

Drug-Eluting Stents

Seminars in Interventional Radiology, 2022
AbstractEndovascular revascularization strategies have advanced tremendously over the years and are now often considered first line for treatment of peripheral arterial disease. Drug-eluting stents (DESs) have been developed as one of the tools to overcome the limitations of elastic recoil and neointimal hyperplasia observed with balloon angioplasty ...

Drug-Eluting Stents

Annual Review of Medicine, 2004
Advances in catheter and stent design have made stent implantation the standard coronary angioplasty procedure. Unfortunately, in-stent restenosis continues to plague this procedure, with the optimum binary restenosis rates reaching ∼10% to 20%. In the past few years, it has become clear that in-stent restenosis is largely due to the migration and ...

Stents and Drug-Eluting Stents

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2009
Synechiae and ostial stenosis are common and troublesome complications following endoscopic sinus surgery. Many investigators have advocated the use of stents to minimize the risk of postoperative stenosis while others have found their use to be of no benefit. This article reviews the advantages and disadvantages of various stents used in sinus surgery,

Drug‐Coated balloons vs drug‐eluting stents for the treatment of small coronary artery disease: A meta‐analysis of randomized trials

Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions, 2020
There is conflicting evidence about the effects of drug‐coated balloons (DCB) compared with drug‐eluting stents (DES) in patients with native small vessel coronary artery disease (CAD).

An Update on Drug-Eluting Stents

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2012
Coronary artery disease remains one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Percutaneous coronary intervention has been shown to be an effective treatment for angina pectoris, although it does not provide any prognostic benefit in stable patients.

In-stent Restenosis of drug-eluting Stents

Future Cardiology, 2013
Drug-eluting stents (DES) have emerged as an improved alternative to bare-metal stents by demonstrating reduced rates of restenosis and target lesion revascularization. This emergence has led to the unrestricted use of DES for various indications and lesions, and subsequently revealed DES in-stent restenosis as a novel interventional therapeutic ...

Polymers for Drug Eluting Stents

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2010
Currently approved drug eluting stents (DES) consist of a metallic scaffold and an elutable drug dispersed in a polymer matrix that conformally surrounds the struts. These primarily biostable polymers bind the drug to the stent and modulate the elution of the drug into the arterial tissue.

Safety of drug-eluting stents

Nature Clinical Practice Cardiovascular Medicine, 2008
Drug-eluting stents (DESs) effectively reduce angiographic restenosis and the clinical need for repeat revascularization procedures as compared with bare-metal stents. Widely publicized concerns arose recently about the incidence of late and very late stent thrombosis with the use of first-generation DESs.

Modelling drug-eluting stents

Mathematical Medicine and Biology, 2010
In this study, we consider a family of mathematical models to describe the elution of drug from polymer-coated stents into the arterial wall. Our models include the polymer layer, the media, the adventitia, a possible topcoat polymer layer and atherosclerotic plaque.
