Late-Breaking SWEDEPAD Trial Finds No Benefit of Drug-Coated Balloons and Stents, Raises Safety Concerns
Vascular News shared an important post on LinkedIn:
“BREAKING NEWS: Drug-coated balloons and stents were not associated with reduced risk of amputation or improved quality of life compared with uncoated devices in the SWEDEPAD 1 and 2 trials. In addition, higher five-year mortality with drug-coated devices in patients with intermittent claudication was noted, leading researchers to stress that the safety of paclitaxel-coated devices is an “ongoing discussion”.
