Platelet activation and high tissue factor level predict acute stent thrombosis in pig coronary arteries: Prothrombogenic response of drug-eluting or bare stent implantation within the first 24 hours

Increased thrombogenicity of drug-eluting stents (DESs) has recently been reported. The aim of the present study was to investigate the prothrombogenic effect of DESs and Bare stents, and determine factors predictive of acute stent thrombosis (AST) in preclinical experiments using new stent design or coating...
