Relationship Between the Sizes of Blood Vessel and Selected Stent |Biomedgrid

Left subclavian artery (LSA) occlusion is often treated by stent implantation. However, it may cause In-Stent Restenosis. The most comment of In-Stent Restenosis is excessive thrombus that squeezes the stent and causes vascular occlusion; hence “Drug-Eluting Stent” and “Assurance” are produced. Besides, the selected stent size is an important factor for preventing from In-Stent Restenosis. There are no data regarding the blood vessel cross-section area versus subclavian In-Stent Restenosis. This research is to investigate the relationship between the cross-section diameter of blood vessel and the size of the selected stent after stenting for In-Stent Restenosis based on previous medical records. A doctor then can select which stent is more suitable for a patient.
