The stent coatings can be broadly classified into three types: biocompatible coatings, drug-delivery coatings ... These coatings are mostly inorganic materials that usually have no capacity ...

Polymer-free stents show comparable PCI results but with increased early thrombosis risk, impacting clinical choices.

The results were reported in Bioactive Materials. "Drug-eluting stents are widely used to mitigate restenosis, but often inhibit vascular re-endothelialization, increasing the risk of thrombosis and ...

Drug-eluting stents are widely used to mitigate this ... cells responses through in vitro and ex vivo analysis, Bioactive Materials (2024). DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2024.09.019 ...

Nanoporous materials will have applications in implants ... A well-known example is the drug-eluting stent: originally stents were passive objects that kept blood vessels and other structures ...
