This study looked at the best way to place drug-eluting stents in heart arteries that have a branch. It compared stenting both the main artery and the side branch versus stenting only the main artery and treating the side branch if needed. The study included 413 people with chest…

This study compared two types of heart valves (Sapien and Myval) used in a procedure called TAVI to treat aortic valve disease. Over 1,000 patients were randomly assigned to receive one of the valves. Researchers tracked major heart problems like death, stroke, and valve issues f…

This study compared two ways to place stents (small mesh tubes) in heart arteries that have a branch point blockage. 425 patients with chest pain took part. The goal was to see which method—crush or culotte—led to fewer heart problems like death, heart attack, or need for another…

This study tested a special stent made of magnesium that slowly dissolves over time. It was designed to treat blocked arteries in the heart, specifically at branch points. Twenty patients with stable chest pain or silent heart disease received the stent. Researchers checked if th…

This study tracked patients who received a combination of two treatments for severe coronary artery disease: bypass surgery on one main artery and stent placement on others. Researchers wanted to see if this hybrid approach worked better than using just surgery or just stents alo…

This study compared two ways to close the artery in the leg after a heart catheter procedure: a small plug called FemoSeal versus pressing on the spot by hand. Over 1,000 adults took part. The goal was to see which method caused fewer large bruises and was more comfortable for pa…
