Aim: The purpose of this registry was to establish long-term safety and efficacy through implantation of Supralimus-Core sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) in real-world patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods: The present registry was a retrospective, singe-arm, single-centre, investigator-initiated registry. A total of 372 consecutive patients were implanted with Supralimus-Core SES between January 2015 and November 2016. The primary endpoints were major adverse cardiac events (MACE), a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction (MI), target lesion revascularization (TLR) and target vessel revascularization (TVR) at 24 months. The secondary endpoints were all-cause death and all separate components of the primary endpoint. Additional endpoints included events of stent thrombosis classified as definite, probable, and possible stent thrombosis. Follow-ups were conducted at 30-days, 6-months, 12-months and 24-months after the index procedure. Results: The mean age of the registry population was 56.3 ± 11.1 years. Males constituted 276 (74.2%) patients. Hypertensives, diabetics, alcoholics, tobacco chewers and smokers comprised 198 (53.2%), 160 (43.0%), 93 (25.0%), 91 (24.5%) and 88 (23.7%) of the registry population, respectively. The mean length and diameter of stents implanted was 19.3 ± 8.8 mm and 2.9 ± 0.3 mm, respectively. At the 24-month follow-up, MACE was reported in 14 (3.8%) patients. Cardiac death, MI, TLR and TVR was reported in 7 (1.9%), 4 (1.1%), 3 (0.8%) and 4 (1.1%) patients, respectively. Overall stent thrombosis occurred in 4 (1.1%) patients. Conclusions: The low MACE rate of 3.8% at the 24-month follow-up indicates favorable long-term results after implantation of the ultra-thin strut Supralimus
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
