Why the study?
Does a dual layer micromesh carotid stent provide safe and effective outcomes in patients at high risk for carotid endarterectomy?
Does a dual layer micromesh carotid stent provide safe and effective outcomes in patients at high risk for carotid endarterectomy?
A new dual layer micromesh carotid stent appears safe and effective at 30 days for patients at high risk for carotid endarterectomy.
Supports evaluation of dual-layer micromesh stents in high-risk patients; leaves open randomized comparisons to endarterectomy.
The 30-day clinical outcome of 100 patients treated with a dual layer micromesh carotid stent (Roadsaver) shows promising results. The Roadsaver stent is a safe and effective device for endovascular treatment of subjects at high risk for carotid endarterectomy.
