SUPERA stent outcomes in Above-The-Knee IntervEntions: Effects of COMPression and ELongation (SAKE-COMPEL) Sub-study
Abstract
Introduction
The interwoven nitinol design of the Supera stent has been shown to have superior radial strength and fracture resistance resulting in higher patency rates at 6 and 12 months. A detailed sub-analysis of SUPERB trial showed differences in patency based on stent conformation post deployment. We evaluated the patency of the stent within the SAKE study cohort based on stent deployment conformation.
