Polymer-based versus polymer-free stents in high bleeding risk patients: final 2-year results from Onyx ONE
08 Jun 2022
The results of this study show that at 2-year follow-up HBR patients undergoing PCI with a polymer-based zotarolimus-eluting stent & 1-month DAPT had similar outcomes in terms of both safety & efficacy to those with a polymer-free biolimus A9-coated stent.
