The need for stent-lesion matching to optimize outcomes of intracoronary stent implantation.

چکیده
Intracoronary stents have markedly improved the outcomes of catheter-based coronary interventions. Intracoronary stent implantation rates of over 90% during coronary angioplasty are common. Stent implantations are associated with a small but statistically significant number of adverse outcomes including restenosis, thrombosis, strut malapposition, incomplete strut endothelialization, and various types of stenting failure. Better matching of biomechanical properties of stents and lesions could further improve the clinical outcome of intracoronary stenting. Thus, in this article, we assess the need for advanced intracoronary stent-lesion matching. We reviewed the data on biomechanics of coronary stents and lesions to develop knowledge-based rationale for optimum intracoronary stent selection. The available technical information on marketed intracoronary stents and the current understanding of the biomechanical properties of coronary lesions at rest and under stress are limited, preventing the development of knowledge-based rationale for optimum intracoronary stent selection at present. Development of knowledge-based selection of intracoronary stents requires standardization of mechanical stent testing, communication of the nonproprietary technical data on stents by the industry and dedicated research into procedural stent-lesion interactions.

Overview of Intracoronary Brachytherapy for in-Stent Restenosis of a Drug-Eluting Stent
Percutaneous coronary intervention with stenting is considered recently as the most common procedure for the treatment of symptomatic coronary. The article reviewed 41 studies published during 1997-2019 on intracoronary brachytherapy for in-stent restenosis of a drug-eluting stent. Intracoronary radiation therapy was finally confirmed in the setting of in-stent restenosis using as adjunctive th...
متن کاملImmediate outcomes of eptifibatide therapy during intracoronary stent implantation
BACKGROUND The objective of the present study was to assess the major immediate outcomes of eptifibatide therapy during intracoronary stent implantation. MATERIALS AND METHODS In an interventional study, patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were randomized into either the eptifibatide (n = 100) or the control (n = 107) group. In each group, demographic and clinical cha...
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 کاملModeling and dose calculations of a pure beta emitting 32P coated stent for intracoronary brachytherapy by Monte Carlo code
Background: Recently, different investigators have studied the possibility of radiation therapy in restenosis prevention and have shown promising results. In this study a unique radioactive source for intra vascular brachytherapy (IVBT) was investigated. The two-dimensional dose distribution in water for a 32P IVBT stent has been calculated. The pure beta emitter source 32P has been co...
متن کاملAcute and Long Term Outcomes of Coronary Intervention in Unprotected Left Main Lesions
Introduction : Significant left main coronary artery stenosis jeopardizes the entire myocardium of the left ventricle and has the worst prognosis of any form of coronary artery disease. Coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG) has been considered as the standard therapeutic approach for such patients. There are limited data on the safety and effectiveness of percutaneous coronary intervention (PC...
