Self-expandable sirolimus-eluting stents compared to second-generation drug-eluting stents for the treatment of the left main: A propensity score analysis from the SPARTA and the FAILS-2 registries.
(2019-02-01)
OBJECTIVES: To compare the effectiveness and safety of self-expandable, sirolimus-eluting Stentys stents (SES) and second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES-II) for the treatment of the unprotected left main (ULM). ...
Rehospitalizations Following Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Results From a Multi-Center Randomized Trial.
(2017-08-05)
BACKGROUND: Rehospitalizations (RHs) after ST-elevation myocardial infarction carry a high economic burden and may deteriorate quality of life. Characterizing patients at higher risk may allow the design of preventive ...
Clinical performance of a dedicated self-apposing stent for the treatment of left main stem disease. Results of the left Main AngioplasTy wIth a Self-apposing StEnt - the MATISSE study.
(2018-10)
BACKGROUND: In the recent years percutaneous treatment of the left main stem (LM) has gained a precise role as a result of consistent scientific evidence vs. coronary artery bypass. A self-apposing stent offers an improved ...
Sex disparities in acute myocardial infarction care and outcomes.
(2018-11-01)
AIM: We investigated sex-based and regional outcomes after contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the Xience V stent in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). METHODS AND RESULTS: This patient ...
A Study of Platelet Inhibition, Using a 'Point of Care' Platelet Function Test, following Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction [PINPOINT-PPCI].
(2015)
BACKGROUND: Rapid coronary recanalization following ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) requires effective anti-platelet and anti-thrombotic therapies. This study tested the impact of door to end of procedure ...
One-year efficacy and safety of everolimus-eluting bioresorbable scaffolds in the setting of acute myocardial infarction.
(Public Library of Science, 2020-07-09)
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: This study sought to compare clinical outcomes between bioresorbable scaffolds (BRS) and durable polymer everolimus-eluting metallic stents (DP-EES) in patients with acute myocardial infarction ...
Outcomes of 10,312 patients treated with everolimus-eluting bioresorbable scaffolds during daily clinical practice - results from the European Absorb Consortium.
(2022-02)
OBJECTIVES: To asses mid-term clinical outcomes of bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) for the treatment of coronary artery disease in a large-scale all-comers population. BACKGROUND: Several clinical settings are ...
Treatment Strategies and Outcomes of Emergency Left Main Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.
(2022-08-15)
Emergency percutaneous coronary intervention of the left main (LM ePCI) coronary artery necessitated by acute coronary syndrome is associated with a high risk of mortality. However, optimal treatment strategies and related ...
