Briefly, between August 2013 and December 2015, 1845 consecutive patients with coronary artery disease undergoing PCI with one or more target lesions suitable for drug-eluting stent implantation were included in AIDA. Key exclusion criteria were target lesions longer than 70 mm, a visually estimated reference vessel diameter of < 2.5 mm of > 4.0 mm, treatment of a true bifurcation lesion with a priori planned two device strategy, and treatment of in-stent restenosis. Patients were randomized after successful pre-dilatation of the first lesion. Device sizing was based on visual assessment by the operator. Online QCA, or periprocedural testing of cardiac biomarkers, were not mandatory. Device implantation strategy was planned according to the instructions for use of the implanted device.
Absorb bvs
The Absorb BVS is a fully bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) designed for the treatment of coronary artery disease. It provides temporary scaffolding to the artery, allowing for natural vessel healing and restoration of blood flow.

Absorb BVS vs Xience EES in PCI

Comparison of Absorb BVS and Xience V
The Xience V (Abbott Vascular, CA, USA) is a cobalt-chromium stent coated with a non-erodible fluoropolymer loaded with 100 μg/cm2 of everolimus. The thickness of the metallic struts and coating combined is approximately 90 µm (81 µm for the stent and 7.8 µm for the polymer ≈ 90) [8 ]. The antiproliferative drug concentration and release profile are similar in both stents.

Modeling Bioresorbable Scaffold Geometry
Since we are interested in the changes in WSS around the struts we defined three different strut surfaces: 1. Lateral inflow, the surface facing the inflow area, 2. Lateral outflow, the surface facing the outflow area and 3. Endoluminal strut surface, the top surface of the strut (Electronic Supplement).
Comparison of Magmaris and ABSORB BVS
The ABSORB BVS (Abbott-Vascular, Chicago, IL, USA) backbone was constructed of poly-L-lactic acid covered with an everolimus-eluting polymer, both of which resorb in approximately 3 years. The average strut thickness is 150 μm. The device is available in a wide range of diameters and lengths (diameters from 2.5 to 3.5 mm and lengths from 8 to 28 mm), but in this study, we only included scaffolds within the size corresponding to Magmaris (diameters 3.0 mm or 3.5 mm and lengths 12, 18, or 24 mm).

Absorb BVS Implantation Protocol
Patients were pre-treated with aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor. Full anti-coagulation was obtained during intervention with use of unfractionated heparin or bivalirudin. The PCI strategy and use of GPIIb/IIIa inhibitors was left to the discretion of the interventionalist. Lesion pre-dilation was considered mandatory and aggressive vessel preparation prior to scaffold deployment was strongly advocated. Deployment of the scaffold was undertaken using the manufacturer's recommendation of 2 atm pressure increase every five seconds. Scaffolds were to cover 2mm of nondiseased vessel proximal and distal to the target lesion. Intracoronary imaging (OCT or IVUS) was non-mandated and performed at the operator's discretion. Dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin combined with clopidogrel, prasugrel or ticagrelor was prescribed in all patients on discharge with a plan to continue for a minimum duration of 12 months.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
