Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical effect and safety of homemade biodegradable drug eluting stents(Excel stents)in patients with coronary heart disease.Methods Two hundred and twelve patients who received Excel stents implantation during February,2006 to March 2007 were included in the study.Procedural success rate and complications during hospitalization were monitored and all the patients were followed up clinically up to 8-21 months after discharge.Results The procedural success rate was 99.1%(210/212).A total of 420 Excel stents were implanted while direct stenting was applied in 125 patients(29.8%).Sudden cardiac death happened in 1 patient during hospitalization.Two hundred and six patients finished their clinical follow up and among them,6 patients had recurrant angina.Fifty patients received CAG examination 6-9 months after PCI and 2 patients reached the criteria of restenosis(stenosis ≥50%)and required revascularization.Conclusion Homemade biodegradable drug eluting stents(Excel stents)are safe and effective for PCI in coronary heart disease patients.
