Relation between stent thrombosis and calcium channel blocker after drug-eluting stent implantation Kumamoto Intervention Conference Study (KICS) registry

摘要

Background: Stent thrombosis (ST) has emerged as a severe complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Since the occurrence of ST is lower in Japan than Western countries, there are few data to predict ST after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation in Japan. We examined the independent predictors of ST incidence after DES implantation in Japanese patients, including the use of calcium channel blockers (CCBs).
