Covered Stents in Treatment of Coronary Artery Perforation — CRACK  

Coronary Artery Perforation Clinical Trial

Official title: Procedural and 1-year Outcomes Following Large Vessel Coronary Artery Perforation Treated by Covered Stents Implantation: Multicentre CRACK Registry

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Covered stents have been mainly used for treatment of potentially life-threatening coronary artery perforation and coronary artery aneurysm. Prior studies suggest that the use of covered stents improves event-free survival, enabling a life-threatening situation to be managed without emergency surgery and with significantly reduced rates of mortality, cardiac tamponade, and major adverse cardiac events. Although the devices are used for a long time, very limited study has described procedural-related outcomes with this specific technology. We therefore want to report procedural, in-hospital and long term outcomes among patients treated with the covered stents.
