Maximum Circular Unsupported Surface Area (MCUSA)
  • MCUSA = 0.73 mm2 (Value measured on expanded stent of 2.5 mm)
  • Lower MCUSA aids in uniform drug distribution
  • Scaffolding is more uniform
Scaffolding Overview and Design Characteristics
  • Provides enhanced structural support
  • Aids in optimal apposition to vessel wall
  • Prevents plaque prolapse
  • Leads to uniform expansion of stent
Long Link
  • Enhanced overall structural integrity
  • Longer links aid in well controlled expansion of the stent
  • Longer link resists longitudinal compression
  • Longer link transmits "Push" force with higher efficiency

Unique biodegradable polymer matrix

  • Combination of hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymers in form of thin coating layers on stent
  • Provides control over drug release
  • Ensures excellent coating integrity

Uses clinically proven, safe and effective drug Sirolimus elutes from biodegradable polymeric matrix

Drug release profile

  • Drug: Sirolimus
  • Drug dose: 1.4 µg/mm2
  • Release kinetics
  • About 80% of drug is released at 4 weeks in biological media while 100% drug is released at a slow rate within 3 months.
  • The initial moderate level of Sirolimus drug release from middle layer coating helps to inhibit early phase of neointimal hyperplasia.
  • Controlled drug release kinetics from base layer coating is beneficial to maintain the effective amount of drug level in the arterial tissues which are required to prevent smooth muscle cell proliferation.
