High risk of bleeding (HBR) is a determining factor for the duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). Recent studies have shown that the use of one-month DAPT is beneficial in terms of ischemic as well as hemorrhagic events, particularly in HBR patients, compared with longer DAPT. European guidelines therefore authorize one-month DAPT in HBR patients presenting even an acute coronary syndrome.
The HT Supreme Drug Coated Coronary Stent System (HT Supreme DES) is designed to promote reendothelialization as quickly as possible. That's why the stent is called "HT" Supreme, with "HT" standing for "Healing Targeted", enabling a DAPT of just 1 month in all-comers HBR patients.
Thanks to these features, the investigators aim to demonstrate ischemic and hemorrhagic complication rates lower than those found in the literature with other stent.
