First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested a two-step procedure for people with severely hardened heart arteries. First, doctors used a special device to shave away hard plaque, then inflated a drug-coated balloon to open the artery. The goal was to see if this approach could safely improve blood flow and reduce future heart problems without leaving a permanent stent. The study involved 134 adults with stable or unstable heart disease.
