Stable CAD (Coronary artery disease)

Find all the latest content on stable coronary artery disease (stable CAD) published on this website.

A complex and changing disease state requiring wide expertise, stable CAD can involve a diverse range of underlying chronic or evolutionary stages involving full use of all available tools, devices and techniques like those for invasive imaging and functional assessment. Taking into account underlying comorbidities such as diabetes is critical. Advances in imaging techniques, as well as the use of adjunctive pharmacotherapy, vascular access or invasive interventions such as bypass surgery, are important, as are understanding bleeding risks, all of which can be found here…

Intravascular healing is not affected by approaches in contemporary CTO PCI: the CONSISTENT CTO study

16 Jul 2020

This study compares clinical, angiographic and imaging outcomes of patients undergoing CTO PCI with dissection and re-entry techniques (DART) and subintimal stenting to intimal techniques.

Randomised comparison of the polymer-free biolimus-coated BioFreedom stent with the ultrathin strut biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting Orsiro stent in an all-comers population treated with PCI: the SORT OUT IX Trial

03 Jul 2020

While investigations testing differences in efficacy and safety between drug-eluting stents according to the characteristics of the coating – durable, bioresorbable, or polymer-free – have shown mixed results, several studies have highlighted the benefit of implanting a device with thinner strut.
