Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular medicine
  • Medical device technology

Background:

  • The NIR stent represents a "second-generation" slotted-tube stent.
  • It was developed following earlier models like the Palmaz Schatz and Gianturco-Roubin stents.
  • Clinical use commenced in 1992.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the clinical performance of the NIR stent.
  • To evaluate long-term outcomes following NIR stent implantation.
  • To assess experience with the gold-plated NIR stent variant.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of clinical studies.
  • Analysis of patient data across different anatomical and clinical subsets.
  • Examination of clinical experience with gold-plated NIR stents.
