Resorption

Pre-procedure
Inital diagnostic
Post implantation
Immediatly after Implantation, struts are well apposed to the vessels wall.
6-month follow-up
While the Magnesium resorption process continues, endothelialization progresses.
12-month follow-up
The Magnesium resorption is completed. No struts appear in OCT.
>99%of struts no longer visible at 12 months8 Magnesium fully resorbed after 12 months8

Procedure

Experience shows that following 4 Ps for Freesolve RMS implantations may lead to better patient outcomes.

Patient Selection

Appropriate patient selection is crucial to achieve procedural success. Freesolve is currently indicated for de novo lesions, with a reference vessel diameter and lesion length closely matching the available Freesolve sizes. Each individual patient should receive best clinical care and should benefit from BRS Technology.

Proper Sizing

If uncertain about the vessel diameter, use QCA, IVUS and/or OCT for quantitative lesion evaluation. The diameters available are 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0 mm, do not implant into vessels <2.5 mm or >4.2 mm in diameter. Angiogram generally underestimates the diameter of the vessel by 0.25 mm.

Pre-Dilatation

Pre-dilatation with a non-compliant balloon with a 1:1 balloon-to-artery ratio is mandatory. The balloon should expand fully. The residual stenosis before the Freesolve implantation is recommended to be less than 20 %. If the pre-dilatation goal is not achieved, use other balloon technologies such as scoring balloons.

Post-Dilatation

Post-dilatation with a non-compliant balloon 0.5 mm larger than the implanted scaffold expanded at high pressure (> 16 atm) is recommended. Please keep in mind that the Freesolve expansion limit is 0.6 mm beyond nominal scaffold size. During the learning phase, OCT is helpful to check for vessel and lumen dimensions, lesion length and struts’ malapposition.

Testimonials

Prof. Michael Haude (Rheinklinikum, Germany) talks about Freesolve™ and the BIOMAG-I First-In-Human trial outcomes and what impact this has for the future of scaffolds.

Prof. Michael Joner (German Heart Centre, Germany) explains the resorption process of the new generation RMS Fressolve™ and how this scaffold can have thinner struts and a resorption time of 12 months with a prolonged scaffolding time.

Dr. Masaru Seguchi (German Heart Centre, Germany) explains the aim of the BIOMAG-I OCT analysis, what the findings are and what the data means for the future of cardiology.
