Original Title:
Stent reductor del seno coronario para pacientes con angina refractaria
Authors' objectives:
To analyse the utility of coronary sinus reducer stents in patients with refractory angina (RA) and indications for their use, as well as assess their effectiveness, potential benefits and adverse effects.
Authors' results and conclusions:
After refining the search, 14 articles were included in the review. These articles corresponded to seven review articles, one observational study, one non-randomized multicentre prospective study, two retrospective studies, one clinical trial and its protocol, and a description of a specific case. The results report on the use of the coronary sinus reducer stent as an alternative technology for treating patients with RA who are not candidates for revascularization or considered high-risk candidates and indicate that the device is an alternative option that is safe and effective, improving symptoms in patients treated.
Conclusions
The coronary sinus reducer is a new technology designed to reduce disabling symptoms and improve the quality of life in patients with RA. Currently, a growing body of evidence supports the view that the device has clinical benefit in that it significantly alleviates angina symptoms in 70-80% of patients with obstructive coronary artery disease who are not candidatesfor revascularization.
Authors' methods:
A generic search was conducted in March 2018. The search strategy was based on controlled language and free-text terms including angina, coronary sinus, and reducer stent, as well as the brand name of the device under assessment, Neovasc. The search was adapted to each of the databases used and limited to articles published in English or Spanish but with no temporal restrictions.
