Risk of In-stent Re-stenosis
Session Overview
Description
This session discusses the types of stents used to reduce re-stenosis and their success rates.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this session you will be able to:
- Compare and contrast the different types of stents and their corresponding risks of re-stenosis
Once a stent has been inserted after angioplasty, it is not without risk of re-stenosis.
It is essential that this condition is recognised early on.
The time scale for re-stenosis is now well recognised.
Patients should be risk stratified and managed appropriately.
