The rise in cardiovascular disease prevalence, aging populations, and technological advancements in the field drive increased demand for interventional cardiology devices. As the industry prepares for ...
Coronary artery calcification (CAC) has posed unique challenges since the advent of percutaneous coronary interventions. CAC may complicate into inability to cross device, acute stent under-expansion, ...
Stent selection and concomitant antithrombotic ... of the available evidence on the magnitude of the competing risks of restenosis, stent thrombosis, stroke and bleeding events in this complex ...
These scaffolds initially stabilize the vessel and provide the same benefits as a metal stent, but they fully degrade after several years, leaving the artery free from any permanent implant. Though ...
A promising target for a stent-based electronic system is to monitor the progression of restenosis. Towards this, we report a stent-based sensor system utilizing an electronic stent and a soft sensor ...
