U.S., Oct. 1 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07198529) titled 'OCT-Guided Stent Optimization for Short-Duration Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Stable Angina' on Sept. 19.
Brief Summary: This study aims to evaluate whether the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT), an advanced intravascular imaging tool, can improve stent implantation results and make it possible to shorten the duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients with stable angina who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
PCI with drug-eluting stents is a standard treatment for patients with stable angina, and these patients are usually prescribed DAPT for 6 to 12 months to prevent stent thrombosis and other c...
