What are the one-year clinical outcomes of the STENTYS Self-Apposing coronary stent in patients presenting with STEMI undergoing primary PCI?
The use of the STENTYS Self-Apposing stent in primary PCI for STEMI is feasible, with acceptable cardiovascular event rates that are significantly improved when post-dilation is performed.
