Resumen de Effectiveness and security evaluation of bioresorbable vascular scaffolds for percutaneous coronary intervention in a non-selective clinical cohort of patients
Polymeric and metallic bioresorbable vascular scaffolds were considered to constitute a safe and effective alternative in coronary revascularization in humans after clinical and angiographical favorable outcomes obtained in their respective pivotal trials. Nevertheless, we consider that there was no solid scientific evidence of their behavior in different clinical scenarios outside the controlled setting of a clinical tria l. The prospective studies included in the present Doctoral Thesis were therefore designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bioresorbable devices analyzing their behavior from the clinical, angiographic and advanced imaging perspectives.
