Biodegradable scaffold with nano-materials for treating heart disease
The development of bioresorbable scaffolds/stents (BRS) has been termed as the 4th revolution in interventional cardiology. The current poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) BRS have thick stents struts to provide radial support for the artery but led to issues like stent thrombosis, which requires extended per...
