Design Effect of Metallic (Durable) and Polymeric (Resorbable) Stents on Blood Flow and Platelet Activation

Bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) provide transient vessel support for occluded coronary arteries while resorbing over time, potentially allowing vessel restoration approximating the native, healthy state. Clinical trials indicate that the Absorb BVS (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA) performan...

Zusammenfassung:Bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) provide transient vessel support for occluded coronary arteries while resorbing over time, potentially allowing vessel restoration approximating the native, healthy state. Clinical trials indicate that the Absorb BVS (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA) performance was similar to that of the Xience metallic drug‐eluting stent (DES), with low long‐term complications rates. However, when under‐deployed in very small vessels (diameter
