Comparison of new-generation drug-eluting stents versus drug-coated balloon for in-stent restenosis: a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The study sought to compare angiographic and clinical outcomes of new-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) versus drug-coated balloon (DCB) in patients with coronary in-stent restenosis (ISR).

Design

Setting

Only randomised trials comparing DES with DCB were included.

Participants

Patients with ISR in the included trials.

Interventions

New-generation DES versus DCB.

Outcomes

The angiographic and clinical outcomes including cardiac death, all-cause death, myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularisation (TLR), target vessel revascularisation (TVR), major adverse cardiac
