Different coronary stent design

1. Different coronary stent design DR AWADHESH KUMAR SHARMA DEPARTMENT OF CARDIOLOGY PGIMER & DR RML HOSPITAL,NEW DELHI

2. Background The introduction of angioplasty led to the development of a completely new approach to treat CAD. Until 1994, the percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) was the alone treatment for coronary artery disease. However, the incidence of restenosis of coronary arteries was an important problem, necessitating repeated interventional procedures in 30% of patients treated with PTCA alone. NEJM 1994;331:489-95

3. Coronary artery stents were developed to provide a metal scaffolding for the angio-plastied vessel, in an attempt to limit negative re- modelling . Sigwart et al first reported the efficacy of stents in reducing restenosis rates in 1987. By 1994, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had approved two stents ( Gianturco-Roubin stent and the Palmaz - SchatzTM stent). Journal of Invasiv Cardiology.2001;13:634-639

4. Gianturco-Roubin II Flat wire coil attached to a single longitudinal strut 316 L stainless steel The first coronary stent approved by the FDA in June 1993. J. clinical pathology.2005,aug;58(8):795-804

5. Palmaz -Schatz Balloon expandable; slotted tube 316 L stainless steel J. clinical pathology.2005,aug;58(8):795-804

6. The wide acceptance of coronary stenting was based on the results of the BElgian NEtherlands STENT (BENESTENT) and the STent REStenosis Study (STRESS) trials, which showed the superiority of stenting over balloon angioplasty. After the wide acceptance of coronary stents the primary concern of stent development is the need to reduce device profiles and to increase flexibility to facilitate safe delivery. N Engl J Med, 1994;331:489-95 .

10. JACC 2003;41:1283-1288

11. TYPES OF STENTS Mechanism of expansion (self-expanding or balloon- expandable) Materials (stainless steel, cobalt-based alloy, tantalum, nitinol , Pt,Ir,Cr , inert coating, biodegradable) Forms (sheet, wire or tube) Manufacturing methods (laser cut, water-jet cutting, photo-etching ) Geometrical configurations/design (mesh structure, coil, slotted tube, ring, multi-design) Addition to stent (grafts, radio-opaque markers, coatings ) Min Invas Ther & Allied Technol 2002;11:137-47.

12. Stent geometric design MECHANISM OF EXPANSION Balloon-expandable stents The stent is pre-mounted on a balloon and the inflation of the balloon plastically expands the stent with respect to the balloon diameter. Self-expanding stents- The smart material auto expands to a calculated size. Journal of invasive cardiology 1995;7:127-134

13. MATERIALS Corrosion resistance Biocompatibility Adequately radio-opaque Create minimal artifacts during MRI

14. Stent platforms Stent materials- Non degradable material 316L stainless steel- Excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance Ferromagnetic nature and low density make it a non-MRI compatible Poorly visible fluoroscopic material First generation DESs, Cypher ( sirolimus -eluting stent, Cordis , Warren, NJ) and Taxus ( paclitaxel -eluting stent, Boston Scientific, Natick, MA) JACC 1996;27:53

15. Co-Cr Superior radial strength and improved radiopacity Thinner stent struts The second generation DES, Xience V ( everolimus -eluting stent, Abott Vascular, CA) and Endeavor ( zotarolimus -eluting stent,Medtronic Vascular, Santa Rosa, CA). JACC 1996;27:53

16. Ta- tantalum Excellent corrosion resistant material Coated on 316L SS to improve corrosion properties and biocompatibility High density and non-ferromagnetic properties Fluoroscopically visible and MRI compatible Higher rates of recoil- poor mechanical properties JACC 1996;27:53

17. Ti Excellent biocompatibility and corrosion resistance Low tensile strength and ductility Ti alloys in combination with Ni-Ti Ti-nitride oxide coating on 316L SS JACC 1996;27:53

18. Ni-Ti Good biocompatibility, radial force and shape memory Coated by some materials such as polyurethane, Ti nitride and polycrystalline oxides to improve the corrosion resistance Inadequate visibility under fluoroscopy American J of cardiology.2008;86:1073-1079

19. Pt- Ir Pt- Ir alloy of 90% platinum and 10% iridium Excellent radiopacity and a reduction in both thrombosis and neointimal proliferation with less inflammatory reactions Recoiling percentage was much higher (16%) than the 316L SS stents Journal of invasive cardiology 1995;7:127-134

20. Biodegradable metallic materials Pure Fe Oxidation of Fe into ferrous and ferric irons Mg alloys There are two Mg alloys, AE2153 and WE4357, used for making stents Radiolucent Biomaterials.2006;27:1728-1734

21. Rational for Biodegradable stents Metal stent drawbacks Cause permanent physical irritation Risk of long term endothelial dysfunction and chronic inflammation Metal have thrombogenic properties Inability for the vessel to restore its a normal physiology Biodegradable stent advantages May eliminate early and late complications of bare-metal stents Restore the vasoreactivity Allow a gradual transfer of the mechanical load to the vessel Higher capacity for drug incorporation and complex release kinetics The need for a permanent prosthesis decreases dramatically 6 months post-implantation

22. Stent design On the basis of design, stents can be divided into three groups: coil, tubular mesh, and slotted tube . Coil stents are characterised by metallic wires or strips formed into a circular coil shape Tubular mesh stents consist of wires wound together in a meshwork, forming a tube. Slotted tube stents are made from tubes of metal from which a stent design is laser cut. Eur Heart J 1997;18:1536–47

23. Coil vs. Tube Coil design had greater strut width with gaps and fewer or no connections between struts The strut width is greater; there are gap between struts, and no connections between struts which give it more flexibility. However, the design lack radial strength, and the wide gap allow tissues to dangle. Singapore Medical Journal, 2004.

24. COIL VS TUBE

25. As a result, coil design has become obsolete and replace by the more superior in radial strength, the tube design. In tubular, there are two type of specification, a slotted tube and modular tube. Singapore Medical Journal, 2004.

26. Slotted tube vs. Modular (TUBULAR)

27. MODULAR DESIGN

28. Slotted tube vs. Modular (TUBULAR) Slotted tube stents resisted restenosis more than the modular stents (22.1% vs 25.2%) Slotted tube- Closed cell design, and open cell design

29. Closed cell Sequential ring construction All Internal inflection points of the structural members are connected by bridging elements. Regular peak-to-peak connections. Optimal scaffolding and a uniform surface, regardless of the degree of bending. Less flexible than a similar open-cell design. Ann Ist Super Sanita 2007;43,no1:89-100

30. Cypher stent by cordis

31. Open cell Some or all the internal inflection points of the structural members are not connected by bridging elements. Periodic peak-to-peak connections, peak-to-valley connections, and mid-strut to mid strut connections The unconnected structural elements contribute to longitudinal flexibility. Ann Ist Super Sanita 2007;43,no1:89-100

32. OPEN CELL DESIGN

33. STENT DESIGN IMPACTS DRUG DELIEVERY

34. LENGTH & DIAMETER OF STENT Long vs. Short Stent length is associated with restenosis rate and clinical events (mainly target lesion revascularization) Short stent has lower cases of restenosis than long stent. Wide vs. Narrow The wide diameter stent is more favorable than the narrow one European Heart Journal 2001;22:1585-1593

35. Number of struts More struts vs. less Less struts induce less chance of restenosis compare to more struts.

36. Thin strut vs thick strut

37. Strut thickness Although the immediate stent performance may be improved by increasing strut thickness (which increases radiovisibility , radial strength and arterial wall support) excessive strut thickness, on the other hand, may impart more vascular injury, trigger more intimal hyperplasia, and engender a higher risk for restenosis than thinner struts. Strut thickness was observed to be an independent predictor of in-stent restenosis ISAR STEREO study(Circulation 2001;103:2816-21) ISAR-STEREO-2 trial(J Am Coll Cardiol 2003;41:1283-8.)

38. In an effort to further reduce strut thickness while maintaining adequate radiovisibility and radial strength, novel metallic materials such as cobalt-chromium alloy are being used for the production of stent.

39. Thick vs. thin struts The stents with thinner struts is preferred for the design of new stents as they can reduce angiographic and clinical restenosis more than those with thicker struts ISAR-STEREO and ISAR-STEREO 2 trials

40. Square vs. round strut cross-section The round strut cross-section without corners or sharp edges is popular at present Round strut cross-section area is ideal for smoothness design. Square strut cross-section area in not recommend because it interferes with blood flow due to their sharp edge which can slice blood cells. Kluwer Academic Publishers 2012

41. Square vs. round strut cross-section

42. Rough vs. smooth surface Smoothness of a stent can affect the performance and biocompatibily of the stent. Smooth surface can reduce thrombus adhesion and neointimal growth. To obtain smoothness, the stent need to be treated with acid-pickling and then electrochemical polishing. The process removes slag which includes depositions and burrs, formed on the surface of stents due to the laser cutting production process. Seminars in interventional cardiology1998;3:139-144

50. Radio-opacity enhancements Stainless steel or nitinol - hard to see fluoroscopically To improve X-ray visibility, markers are often attached to the stents. These additions are typically made from gold, platinum or tantalum Electroplating (with gold) is also being used to enhance X-ray visibility

51. Coatings To increase biocompatibility Heparin was one of the first. Its mode of action is to reduce the coagulation cascade (and thus possibly the thrombogenic risk) after the deployment of a stent. Phosphorylcoline and silicon-carbide have been used in order to reduce platelet activation and interaction, thus possibly controlling their adhesion to the stent struts during the acute phase of stent re- endothelization .

52. Passive coverage has been also shown to be useful. Indeed, covered stents have been created, in which a PTFE layer was put between two stents ( Jostent graft, Jomed ) or one stent was covered by a inner and an outer layer of PTFE ( Symbiot , Boston Scientific)
