Dissolving stent could help kids avoid repeat heart surgeries

NCT ID NCT07628101

First seen Jun 12, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a new type of stent that dissolves over time for children under 9 with narrowed heart arteries. Unlike permanent metal stents, this one opens the vessel and then disappears, allowing the artery to grow naturally. The goal is to see if it is safe and works well, with 45 children being followed for 5 years.
