Description
Background The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of drug-eluting stents (DES) compared with baremetal stents (BMS) on all-cause mortality and target vessel revascularization (TVR) in a ‘‘real-world’’ clinical setting. Methods and results One thousand four hundred and ninety consecutive patients, who underwent PCI, were included in a prospective registry from January 2003 until December 2006. Patients were divided retrospectively into two groups: those who received a DES and those who received a BMS. The primary combined endpoint all-cause mortality or TVR and the individual endpoints death and TVR were evaluated during a mean follow-up period of 24.56 ± 12.5 months (range 6–52 months). In total 1,033 patients (69.3%) received BMS, while 457 patients (30.7%) received DES. With respect to clinical characteristics, significant differences between groups were found for age, hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus, heart failure, previous cerebral insult and presence of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) during intervention. Propensity score analysis was performed in attempt to eliminate this selection bias. With respect to the combined endpoint all-cause death or TVR, 12.9% of patients with DES and 21.3% with BMS (p = 0.015) had an event during the follow-up. 12.3% of patients with BMS but only 5.7% with DES died during the follow-up (p = 0.025). Thirty-three patients (7.2%) of the DES group and 99 patients (9.6%) of the BMS group (p = 0.1) needed TVR. Conclusion Our results obtained in a ‘‘real-world’’ clinical setting exhibit a clinical long-term benefit for DES compared with BMS and underline the safety and efficacy of DES over BMS.
