Development of Biodegradable Stents from Polymeric Composites for Cardiovascular Applications
Abstract: Cardiovascular diseases are still one of the leading health complications in the world, and coronary artery disease remains one of the toughest ones to crack. The introduction of stent implantation in interventional cardiology is a breakthrough concept which helps to restore blood flow and maintain patency of the arteries. On the other hand, long-term results of bare-metal stents and drug-eluting stents indicate the presence of complications, such as in-stent restenosis, …
