使用38-mm Resolute Zotarolimus洗脱支架进行经皮冠状动脉介入的1年期结局。

This study was designed to prospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of the 38-mm Resolute zotarolimus-eluting stent (R-ZES). Drug-eluting stents with long lengths are needed to ensure coverage of long lesions in some patients. Patients recruited from the RESOLUTE US and RESOLUTE Asia studies were implanted with at least one 38-mm R-ZES. Up to 2 lesions (in separate vessels) could be implanted with length ≤35 mm and a reference vessel diameter of 3.0 to 4.2 mm. The primary end point was 1-year target lesion failure, defined as cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction, or clinically driven target lesion revascularization. The 1-year target lesion failure rate using 1 vessel per patient was compared with a performance goal (19%) derived from historical data. There were 223 patients enrolled (n = 269 lesions). The mean age was 60.9 ± 10.9 years, 79% were men, and 38% had diabetes. Target lesion failure rate using a single-vessel analysis was 4.5%, and the upper limit of the 1-sided 95% confidence interval (7.5%) was less than the performance goal of 19%. A secondary analysis using all lesions resulted in a target lesion failure rate of 5.4% (upper limit of 1-sided 95% confidence interval, 8.6%). Baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes were similar between patients with and without diabetes. The rate of probable or definite stent thrombosis was 0.9%. In conclusion, the 38-mm length of the R-ZES was found to be safe and effective with a low rate of target lesion failure and stent thrombosis and no differences in outcomes between patients with and without diabetes.
