چکیده

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 patients for the effect on all major adverse clinical events (MACEs) combined and for target vessel revascularization. Meta-analyses were performed for combined MACEs, patient MACEs, and thrombosis. Regression meta-analyses were performed to examine the effect of certain variables on the efficacy of drug-eluting stents compared with bare metal stents. Meta-analysis of all trials showed that drug-eluting stents produced significant decreases in the need for percutaneous revascularization (relative risk [RR] 0.30, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.22 to 0.40) and coronary artery bypass grafting (RR 0.54, 95% CI 0.32 to 0.89). Drug-eluting stents significantly decreased all MACEs combined (RR 0.40, 95% CI 0.33 to 0.49) but were not associated with an increased risk of stent thrombosis or death. These results were confirmed at analysis as stratified by type of eluting stent, because the need for percutaneous revascularization was significantly lower for sirolimus-eluting stents (RR 0.23, 95% CI 0.15 to 0.35) and paclitaxel-eluting stents (RR 0.39, 95% CIl 0.29 to 0.53).

Cost‐effectiveness of percutaneous coronary intervention with cobalt‐chromium everolimus eluting stents versus bare metal stents: Results from a patient level meta‐analysis of randomized trials

BACKGROUND Second-generation drug eluting stents (DES) may reduce costs and improve clinical outcomes compared to first-generation DES with improved cost-effectiveness when compared to bare metal stents (BMS). We aimed to conduct an economic evaluation of a cobalt-chromium everolimus eluting stent (Co-Cr EES) compared with BMS in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). OBJECTIVE To conduct ...

We compared the efficacy and safety of drug-eluting stents with that of bare-metal stents in patients who experienced acute ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention. To do this, we performed a meta-analysis of 13 randomized controlled trials in which drug-eluting stents were compared with bare-metal stents in STEMI patients. The...

Late thrombosis of drug-eluting stents: a meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials.

PURPOSE Drug-eluting stents are commonly used for percutaneous coronary intervention. Despite excellent clinical efficacy, the association between drug-eluting stents and the risk for late thrombosis remains imprecisely defined. METHODS We performed a meta-analysis on 14 contemporary clinical trials that randomized 6675 patients to drug-eluting stents (paclitaxel or sirolimus) compared with b...

Outcomes following coronary stenting in the era of bare-metal vs the era of drug-eluting stents.

CONTEXT Although drug-eluting stents reduce restenosis rates relative to bare-metal stents, concerns have been raised that drug-eluting stents may also be associated with an increased risk of stent thrombosis. Our study focused on the effect of stent type on population-based interventional outcomes. OBJECTIVE To compare outcomes of Medicare beneficiaries who underwent nonemergent coronary ste...
