Comparison of Drug-Coated Balloons and Drug-Eluting Stents in Primary Percutaneous Coronary Interventions for ST-Segment Elevated Myocardial Infarction: A Systemic Review and Meta-Analysis
Abstract:Background:The most optimal strategy for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) between drug-eluting stents (DES) and drug-coated balloons (DEB) is still unknown. This meta-analysis aims to compare the short-term outcomes of both methods in patients with STEMI.
