SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1, 2 and 3 years

Population: There were 103 stents evaluated by the Stent Fracture Adjudication Committee.

Determined by x-ray at 1, 2 and 3 years using the following classifications: Class 0 - No strut fractures Class I - Single tine fracture Class II - Multiple tine fractures Class III - Stent fracture(s) with preserved alignment of the components Class IV - Stent fracture(s) with mal-alignment of the components Class V - Stent fracture(s) in a trans-axial spiral configuration AND the following categories: Category A - Restenosis ≤ 50% at site of fracture Category B - Restenosis ≥ 50% at site of fracture Category C - Occlusion at site of fracture Category D - Unable to determine
