DES with Biodegradable Polymers NEVO Stent Design (A) The NEVO cobalt chromium stent, which has an open-cell design and unique reservoirs that contain a biodegradable polymer and sirolimus mix that (B) completely biodegrades within 90 days.
Nonpolymeric DES BioFreedom & VESTAsync Stent
Nonpolymeric DES Perceived Advantages Avoidance of adverse effects of a polymer s presence long term Improved healing Improvement to the integrity of stent s surface Shorter duration DAPT
Stents with Novel Coatings The Genous Stent (A) Schematic representation of the endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) capture technology. The CD-34 antigens on the surface of the EPCs attach to the anti-cd-34 antibodies on the stent s surface, promoting endothelialization. (B) The stainless steel Genous stent.

Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold Potential Advantages Restore the vessel to a more natural state, capable of natural vascular function Eliminate chronic sources of vessel irritation and inflammation Vessels remain free for future treatment options Reduce the need for prolonged DAPT Allows for use of non-invasive imaging techniques (CCTA)
Bioabsorption & Drug Release Pattern of the BVS Device The early loss of radial strength has been addressed with the new Revision 1.1 BVS stent (data on file at ABBOTT Vascular).
BVS Device (A) The first-generation BVS device, Revision 1.0. (B) The second-generation device, Revision 1.1. There is a clear change in the device design with the out-of-phase zigzag pattern connected directly or by straight bridges (A, Revision 1.0) being replaced by the in-phase hoops linked by straight bridges (B, Revision 1.1).

Summary No single stent design and polymer type will be suitable for all patients and lesion types. Stent selection should take into account patient characteristics, such as the ability to take long-term DAPT, and lesion characteristics such as the presence of bifurcation lesion. New stent technology appears to allow interventional cardiologists to make these choices, with anticipation that this will result in improved long-term clinical efficacy & safety.
