Heart stent vs bypass surgery: which works better?
NCT ID NCT02100722
Summary
This study compared two common treatments for people with multiple blocked heart arteries. Researchers tested whether using a special wire to guide stent placement (a less invasive procedure) works as well as traditional bypass surgery. The trial involved 1,500 patients and followed them for up to 5 years to see which approach led to fewer heart problems.
