EuroPCR 2018 | Swedish Registry on the SYNERGY DES: tested in primary PCI for the first time

The study included 36292 consecutive patients undergoing acute myocardial infarction receiving PCI with the new generation stent SYNERGY (thin struts, bioresorbable polymer and everolimus eluting); 39.7% presented ST elevation MI.

Registro Sueco con stent SYNERGY: por primera vez stent probado en angioplastia primariaKaplan-Meier curves at 2 years of patients receiving the SYNERGY vs patients receiving other drug eluting stents resulted very similar for thrombosis (0,69% vs 0,81%, p=0.99) or clinically relevant restenosis (1,48% vs 1,25%; p=0.72).

 

No clinical differences, such as infarction or death, were observed between devices.

In this cohort of unselected patients undergoing acute MI, revascularization with SYNERGY DES had the same results as other DES available in the market.
