Clinical and Angiographic Outcomes of Post-drug-coated Balloon Angioplasty in Native Coronary Lesions

Drug-coated balloons (DCB) are designed to deliver drugs (antiproliferative drugs: Paclitaxel, Sirolimus etc.) to the target lesion/vessel wall without leaving nothing behind unlike stent strut or drug delivery system. Drug coated balloons (DCB) allow the homogenous transfer of an anti-proliferative drug to reduce neo-intimal hyperplasia whilst maintaining normal vessel anatomy and function
