Long-Term Outcome of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Using Absorb Bioresorbable Scaffold: A SCAAR Study
This conversation explores a nationwide Swedish study comparing Absorb bioresorbable scaffolds to drug-eluting stents in over 1,900 patients. While early complications were higher with scaffolds, long-term results suggest potential benefits including lower heart attack rates after three years.SCAI Experts, Drs. Dean Kereiakes, Saman Saidi-Seresht, Patrick Serruys, and Gregg Stone discuss the highlights from this original research article. Read the JSCAI article: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jscai.2025.103724
