This study aimed to find the better surgical technique for placing drug-coated stents in blocked, branching heart arteries. It involved 425 patients with chest pain from coronary artery disease. Researchers randomly assigned patients to receive either the 'crush' or 'culotte' ste…

This study tested if a small plug-like device (FemoSeal®) is better than manual hand pressure for closing the small hole in the leg artery after a common heart imaging test called coronary angiography. It involved 1005 patients to see which method caused fewer large bruises and c…

This study looked at whether combining two standard heart treatments works better than either one alone. Doctors treated patients with severe blockages in multiple heart arteries using bypass surgery for one main artery and stent placement for others. The goal was to see if this …

This study compared two approaches for placing drug-coated stents in complex heart artery branches where arteries split. Researchers tested whether routinely placing stents in both branches was better than placing one in the main branch and only treating the side branch if needed…

This small pilot study tested a new type of heart stent made of magnesium that dissolves over time. It was used in 20 patients with blockages where a heart artery splits into two branches. The main goal was to see if placing this dissolving stent in these tricky spots was safe an…
