Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in very small vessel coronary arteries is challenging due to adverse short-term as well as long-term outcomes. This single-arm, open-label, observational study assessed 1-year clinical outcomes of drug-eluting stents (DES) in Indian patients undergoing PCI for symptomatic very small-calibre coronary artery disease. It enrolled 66 Indian patients with 74 very small coronary artery lesions (reference vessel diameter: ≥2.0 and ≤ 2.25 mm); eligible for implantation with 2.25 mm DES. The primary endpoint of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) was 3.0% indicating favourable 1-year clinical outcomes of DES in very small coronary artery lesions in Indian patients.
经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI)在非常小的血管冠状动脉中具有挑战性,因为存在不良的短期和长期结果。这项单臂、开放标签、观察性研究评估了在接受 PCI 治疗有症状的非常小口径冠状动脉疾病的印度患者中使用药物洗脱支架(DES)的 1 年临床结果。它纳入了 66 名印度患者,共 74 个非常小的冠状动脉病变(参考血管直径:≥2.0 且≤2.25 毫米);适合植入 2.25 毫米 DES。主要不良心血管事件(MACE)的主要终点为 3.0%,表明在印度患者的非常小冠状动脉病变中,DES 的 1 年临床结果良好。
