Abstract
Drug-eluting stents (DESs) have been shown to reduce the rate of repeat revascularization compared with bare-metal stents (BMSs) after multivessel percutaneous coronary intervention in carefully selected patients. However, the long-term safety and efficacy of DESs in patients with multivessel disease outside the setting of randomized trials was unknown. Therefore, all patients undergoing multivessel percutaneous coronary intervention with BMSs, sirolimus-eluting stents (SESs), or paclitaxel-eluting stents (PESs) from January 2000 to December 2005 were investigated. The primary end point was all-cause mortality. A total of 1,720 patients were recruited in 3 consecutive sequential groups of BMS (n=701; January 2000 to April 2002), SES (n=293; April 2002 to February 2003), and PES (n=726; February 2003 to December 2005). Overall median follow-up was 1,440 days. There was improved 3-year survival in the SES group (93.7%) compared with both the BMS (86.1%) and PES groups (87.3%), which remained significant after propensity score adjustment for differences in baseline and procedural characteristics (SES vs BMS, adjusted hazard ratio 0.53, 95% confidence interval 0.30 to 0.94; SES vs PES, adjusted hazard ratio 0.49, 95% confidence int...Continue Reading
