Worries After a Heart Stent
Worries After a Heart Stent – Medical Device Coating – Cheersonic
I can always meet people who have had heart stents, worry about this and worry about that, and sometimes drag me to ask for a long time. Of course, I understand it very well. After all, if a foreign body is placed in the heart, no one will worry about it. Today we will talk about what is most afraid of after cardiac stenting?
1. Acute stent thrombosis
Stent placement in the heart is not everything. Stent thrombosis and stent restenosis cannot be avoided 100% at present. The cause of acute thrombosis may be related to the patient’s poor sensitivity to drugs and improper operation, etc. The incidence of this is very low, and stents are all in the hospital, so they can usually be found at the first time and rescued in time.
2. In-stent restenosis
There is also a more common in-stent restenosis, that is, after the stent is completed, the stent is discharged, and the stent is blocked again after a while or a few years.
The most important reason for stent restenosis is failing to take medicine on time and regularly, or failing to adhere to a healthy life, or failing to control the indicators ideally.
After stenting, you need to take aspirin + clopidogrel/ticagrelor for one to one and a half years. If you don’t take it for enough time, it will increase the risk of stent restenosis.
After stenting, the blood vessels are indeed unobstructed, but if you cannot adhere to a healthy lifestyle, more blood vessel waste will be produced again, which will aggravate plaque again, and even plaque will appear in the stent, resulting in in-stent restenosis.
There are also people who are taking medicine but have no stools with LDL, which also increases the risk of vascular plaque formation and in-stent restenosis.
Acute in-stent thrombosis is like an acute myocardial infarction, and in-stent restenosis is like the blockage of normal blood vessels. Therefore, after stenting, the most fear of in-stent thrombosis or stent restenosis is.
The ultrasonic drug-eluting stent spray coating system can be applied to the preparation of polymer coating for preventing vascular restenosis on the surface of implantable drug-eluting stent. Compared to conventional two-fluid nozzles, ultrasonic nozzles can spray a more uniform drug coating that completely covers the stent without the orange peel and adhesion to a complex stent. The soft atomized spray adheres well to surfaces and coating morphology characteristics can be adjusted by modifying process parameters. In addition, the stent coating obtained by ultrasonic spray coating technology is thinner than dip-coating. Ultrasonic spray coating technology can precisely control the amount of drug sprayed on the stent, making the control of the spraying more precisely.
