Which heart stent works best? basel registry tracks Real-World outcomes
NCT ID NCT07814157
First seen Sep 10, 2026 · Last updated Sep 11, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
Researchers at University Hospital Basel are collecting information from routine care to compare treatments for coronary artery disease. The registry follows people who receive a percutaneous coronary intervention, including complex procedures, and who are treated with drug-eluting stents, drug-coated balloons, or bioresorbable scaffolds. By tracking outcomes over time, the study aims to understand which approaches work best for different groups of patients.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If the registry identifies which devices work best for specific patients, doctors could tailor heart artery treatments more precisely and improve long-term outcomes.
- What could go wrong
- Registries observe routine care rather than assign treatments, so they cannot prove cause and effect. Results may reflect the habits of one hospital and may not apply elsewhere.
