The verdict is in? Well, for now anyway. Drug-eluding stents are just as safe and beneficial as their “bare naked” metal counterparts. There has finally been a study that examined the effectiveness of the drug coated stents. The only problem is that the research has only followed the patients for a year post intervention.
No worries though, the researchers out of Rhode Island Hospital will continue to follow the patients for time to come. Let’s hope that the results continue to be favorable for the little drug coated metal miracles.
