SOLACI CACI 2017 | BVS: from clinical evidence to daily practice

Read articles on the main presentations of the first day of SOLACI-CACI 2017 Congress. See the presentation by Dr. Stephen Ellis entitled “BVS: from clinical evidence to daily practice”. We are interested in your opinion. Please, leave your comments, thoughts, questions, etc., below. They will be most welcome.

Los DES de última generación presentan mejores resultados en puentes venosos que los DES antiguos y BMS

New generation DES present better results in vein grafts than older DES and BMS

There is little information comparing contemporary drug eluting stents (DES)  against bare metal stents (BMS), for PCI in saphenous vein grafts in patients receiving (CABG).   This study aimed to assess clinical outcomes after PCI in saphenous vein grafts in patients receiving BMS, first generation DES, and new generation DES between 2006 and 2013. The study

BVS, la plataforma de la discordia

BVS: Controvertial Scaffold

Courtesy of Dr. Agustín Vecchia. The advent of resorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) generated high expectations among interventionists because of its potential advantages over bare metal stents. However, when comparing BVS against the Xience stent, we observed an increased rate of events associated to the first device, to their detriment. Among the reasons behind this poor
