Drug-eluting stents versus bare metal stents in percutaneous coronary interventions (a meta-analysis).
This meta-analysis combined the results of randomized clinical trials to compare the efficacy of drug-eluting stents with that of bare metal stents in percutaneous coronary interventions to ascertain which revascularization strategy is most safe and effective. The literature identified 13 published studies, and 8 were included in the main meta-analysis, thus allowing a meta-analysis on 3,860 pa...
متن کاملDrug-eluting versus bare-metal stents in large coronary arteries.
BACKGROUND Recent data have suggested that patients with coronary disease in large arteries are at increased risk for late cardiac events after percutaneous intervention with first-generation drug-eluting stents, as compared with bare-metal stents. We sought to confirm this observation and to assess whether this increase in risk was also seen with second-generation drug-eluting stents. METHOD...
متن کاملTime dependency of outcomes for drug-eluting vs bare-metal stents.
BACKGROUND Previous research suggests that the early benefit from revascularization with drug-eluting stents might diminish over time. METHODS We performed an extended analysis of a previously identified cohort of 6440 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention between April 1, 2003 and March 31, 2005 using a prospective provincial clinical registry in Alberta, Canada. We compa...

OBJECTIVES To compare the efficacy and safety of percutaneous coronary intervention using second-generation drug-eluting stents with those of coronary artery bypass grafting among patients with multivessel disease and/or unprotected left main coronary artery disease in terms of mortality, myocardial infarction, repeat revascularization, and angina. BACKGROUND Although coronary artery disease ...
متن کاملInterventional Cardiology Risk of Elective Major Noncardiac Surgery After Coronary Stent Insertion A Population-Based Study
Background—Guidelines recommend that noncardiac surgery be delayed until 30 to 45 days after bare-metal stent implantation and 1 year after drug-eluting stent implantation. Methods and Results—We used linked registry data and population-based administrative health care databases to conduct a cohort study of 8116 patients (Ն40 years of age) who underwent major elective noncardiac surgery in Onta...
متن کاملDrug-Eluting or Bare-Metal Stents for Coronary Artery Disease.
BACKGROUND Limited data are available on the long-term effects of contemporary drug-eluting stents versus contemporary bare-metal stents on rates of death, myocardial infarction, repeat revascularization, and stent thrombosis and on quality of life. METHODS We randomly assigned 9013 patients who had stable or unstable coronary artery disease to undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)...
