Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the incidence of late incomplete stent apposition (ISA) and un-coverage by optical coherence tomography (OCT) following everolimus-eluting stent (EES) with bioabsorbable polymer (SYNERGY™, Boston Scientific,Nattick, MA, USA) versus zotarolimus-eluting stent (ZES) with permanent polymer(Resolute Onyx™, Medtronic, Santa Rosa, CA, USA) implantation in patients with AMI at 12 months.

Detailed description

It has been known that persistence of polymer may affect the late/very late safety and efficacy of drug eluting stent (DES) although polymer provides a reservoir for programmed drug release. Newer durable polymers may have enhanced biocompatibility and seem to be associated with improved clinical outcomes. However, they have still been incriminated in the occurrence of inflammation, neo-atherosclerosis, and thrombosis. Therefore, the investigators will evaluate the vascular tissue reaction after different kinds of DES implantation under the high thrombogenic circumstance of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Incidence of malapposed and uncovered stent strut at 12±1 months in both DES groups12monthIncidence of malapposed and uncovered stent strut measured by OCT

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percent neointima cross-sectional area12monthBy OCT, percentage neointima cross sectional area can be obtained by dividing the neointimal area by the stent area.(neointima cross-sectional area in mm²(Quadratmillimeter)/sec)
Mean neointima thickness12monthBy OCT, neointima thickness can be measured as distance from the endoluminal surface of the neointima to the stent strut.(mean neointima thickness in millimeter)
Morphologic characteristics of neointima12monthMorphologic characteristics of neointima measured by OCT(morphologic characteristics of neointima is one of fibrous, fibrocalcific, lipid-laden)
