Clinical and angiographic outcome after conventional angioplasty with optional stent implantation compared with direct stenting without predilatation.
OBJECTIVE To compare in a randomised trial the procedural and clinical outcome and long term patency of conventional angioplasty with optional stent implantation versus direct stenting without predilatation. METHODS Patients undergoing coronary intervention for symptomatic coronary artery disease were randomly assigned to conventional angioplasty with optional stenting or to direct stent impl...
متن کاملSafety, Efficacy and Clinical Outcome of Direct Stent Implantation
Conventional methods of stenting require predilatation, which potentially increase vessel wall injury and cost of the procedure. In this study, the safety and efficacy of direct AVE-S7 (Medtronic-USA) stent placement were evaluated in 100 patients. Quantitative coronary angiography was performed at the baseline and post-stent. Clinical follow-up was done up to 9 months. In 100 patients (76 male...
متن کاملSix-month clinical and angiographic outcome after successful excimer laser angioplasty for in-stent restenosis.
OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the clinical and angiographic six-month follow-up after excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) for restenosed coronary stents. BACKGROUND Excimer laser coronary angioplasty has recently been shown to be safe and efficient for the treatment of in-stent restenosis. METHODS Ninety-six consecutive patients successfully treated with ELCA within 141 stents were ...
متن کاملEvaluating long-term outcomes of coronary angioplasty with or without post-dilatation
Introduction: Post-dilatation is associated with a simultaneous expansion of the stents that enhances the angioplasty outcomes. However, increased risk of mortality and morbidity has been reported in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) which has provoked considerable controversies concerning its efficiency. Materials and Methods: During a two-...
متن کاملRestenosis and clinical outcome in patients treated with amlodipine after angioplasty: results from the Coronary AngioPlasty Amlodipine REStenosis Study (CAPARES).
OBJECTIVES Our intent was to investigate the effect of the dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker amlodipine on restenosis and clinical outcome in patients undergoing percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). BACKGROUND Amlodipine has sustained vasodilatory effects and relieves coronary spasm, which may reduce luminal loss and clinical complications after PTCA. METHODS In a pr...
