• American Heart Association states that 1.313 million
PCI procedures were done in 2006 -- and greater than 70% involved the use
of drug-eluting stents. However, fall 2006 is when the concerns over late
stent thrombosis
in DES first were publicized and DES use fell precipitously in the last
quarter of 2006. As more studies have come out, the benefits of
DES over bare metal in specific patient populations has become clearer
and DES use is starting to increase again. Current measures show DES at
60% or more. Remember that 1.313 million is the number of procedures; more
than one stent may be used in a single procedure.
