Summary
This session reviews the latest evidence on new devices in coronary artery disease management. It covers outcomes from randomized controlled trials including imaging- and physiology-guided PCI with the Bioadaptor device, long-term results of thinner-strut bioresorbable scaffolds, site-specific antithrombotic therapy evaluated in the DESyne BDS Plus Trial, and comparative data on biodegradable versus permanent polymer drug-eluting stents over a decade. These insights inform the evolving landscape of coronary device technology and therapeutic strategies.
