TY - JOUR JO - EuroIntervention TI - Evaluation of a new dual-layer micromesh stent system for the carotid artery: 12-month results from the CLEAR-ROAD study AB - <p class="text-1er-paragraph">Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is associated with a stroke risk, mainly due to dislodgement of debris from the target lesion during the procedure. The stent’s scaffolding capacity plays a major role in preventing procedural events<span class="exposant">1</span>. The introduction of dual-layer stents might reduce the periprocedural risk of embolisation by extensive plaque coverage and prevention of plaque prolapse.</p><p class="text-paragraph">The CLEAR-ROAD trial evaluated the clinical outcomes of treatment with the Roadsaver carotid artery stent in subjects at high risk for carotid endarterectomy requiring carotid revascularisation due to significant extracranial carotid artery stenosis. This report presents the 12-month outcomes of all 100 included patients.</p> AU - Bosiers Marc AU - Deloose Koen AU - Torsello Giovanni AU - Scheinert Dierk AU - Maene Lieven AU - Peeters Patrick AU - Müller-Hülsbeck Stefan AU - Sievert Horst AU - Langhoff Ralf AU - Callaert Joren AU - Setacci Carlo AU - Wauters Jeroen VL - 14 IS - 10 Y1 - 20/11/2018 Y1 - 2018 DOI - 10.4244/EIJ-D-18-00230 SP - 1144 EP - 1146 PB - Europa Digital & Publishing SE - PERIPHERAL INTERVENTIONS UR - https://eurointervention.pcronline.com/article/evaluation-of-a-new-dual-layer-micromesh-stent-system-for-the-carotid-artery-12-month-results-from-the-clear-road-study SN - 1774-024X ER -
