Why the study?
What is the incidence and time course of restenosis during the first year after emergency coronary stenting?
What is the incidence and time course of restenosis during the first year after emergency coronary stenting?
The time course of restenosis after emergency coronary stenting peaks at 3 months and stabilizes after 6 months, mirroring the pattern seen with conventional PTCA.
Supports similar post-stent surveillance timing as PTCA; leaves open need for randomized confirmation of restenosis patterns.
The incidence and the time course of restenosis after emergency coronary stenting are similar to that reported for conventional PTCA. Coronary lumen dimensions demonstrated a peak change at 3 months and remained mostly stable after the first 6 months.
