Stent Thrombosis in the Modern Era

Abstract: Background-There are limited studies of stent thrombosis in the modern era of second-generation stents, high-pressure deployment, and current antithrombotic regimens. Methods and Results-Six recently completed coronary stent trials and associated nonrandomized registries that enrolled 6186 patients (6219 treated vessels) treated with Ն1 coronary stent followed by antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and ticlopidine were pooled for this analysis. Within 30 days, clinical stent thrombosis developed in 53 patients (… Show more

“…[18][19][20] Premature discontinuation of antiplatelet therapy is strongly associated with stent thrombosis, 21,22 and some individuals are resistant to antiplatelet therapy. In the real world, more clinical trials and long-term follow-up is necessary to conclude the safety of DES, because some patients and more complex lesions are excluded from large clinical trials.…”

“…The frequency of stent thrombosis is 1-2% despite dual antiplatelet treatment [6]. Early stent thrombosis (i.e., within 30 days) is mostly due to a mechanical complication whereas late stent thrombosis, especially in the DES era, is due to suboptimal endothelialisation.…”

“…2 Other studies examining ST with BMS show that clinical consequences of angiographic ST include a 64.4% incidence of death or MI at the time of ST and a six-month mortality of 8.9%. 50 For clinically defined ST events, the associated six-month mortality is as high as 20.8%. Due to such a high risk of death following ST, prevention of thrombosis is critical.…”
