HeartVesselHealing.com Launched as Online Educational Resource Regarding Risks Associated with Treatment by Coronary Stents
Importance of Coronary Artery Healing, Causes and Risk Factors of Delayed or Impaired Healing Are Focus of Website
NEW YORK, July 17, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- A new website, HeartVesselHealing.com, was launched today as an educational resource for patients and healthcare professionals regarding the risks associated with delayed arterial healing following coronary stent implantation.
The website provides information about the importance of coronary artery healing following stent placement and the causes and risk factors of delayed, or impaired, healing. This condition, which is exacerbated by the drug coating medication released by drug eluting stents, may cause a patient to be chronically at risk for a blood clot (stent thrombosis), an event that can lead to a heart attack.
In addition to information about coronary artery healing, delayed healing and coronary artery disease in general, the website provides visitors with access to research papers published in the leading medical journals by well-known interventional cardiologists worldwide.
