Core Tip
Core tip: Reports have indicated the use of stents in patients with coronary artery disease has reduced the rates of restenosis. Biodegradable polymer drug eluting stents, have shown to reduce restenosis rates and lower the stent thrombosis rate. Our study assessed 1-year, single-center cohort for clinical outcomes of patients who had received NeoHexa sirolimus drug-eluting stents in real practice. It showed relatively low rates of major adverse cardiac event and stent thrombosis supporting safety and performance of NeoHexa stent and supporting its use as an effective alternative to other existing stents.
