Drug-eluting stents.

Authors: Patrick, Whitlow;

Drug-eluting stents.

Abstract

Drug-eluting stents are designed to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiac events after percutaneous coronary intervention by inhibiting cellular proliferation and reducing restenosis of the coronary artery. In high-risk lesions, drug-eluting stents may limit restenosis and the need for repeat revascularization. In optimal lesions, they may eliminate restenosis completely. Drug-eluting stents have made percutaneous intervention a safe and definitive treatment for coronary artery disease.
