First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study reviews the long-term heart health of 1,500 patients who received a drug-eluting balloon to treat coronary artery disease between 2010 and 2025. Researchers will track major heart events like heart attacks, strokes, and repeat procedures. The goal is to better understand the safety and effectiveness of this treatment over many years.
