First seen Apr 28, 2026 · Last updated May 19, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study looked at two types of stents (small mesh tubes) used to open blocked heart arteries. Over 3,000 people received either a newer everolimus-coated stent or an older sirolimus-coated stent. Researchers tracked heart attacks, deaths, and the need for repeat procedures to see which stent worked better in real-world use.
