Pediheart Podcast #360: Initial Results Of The Novel "Minima" Stent For Infants And Small Children

from Pediheart: Pediatric Cardiology Today · host Robert Pass

This week we review the results of the new pivotal trial of the 'Minima' stent by Renata Medical. What is special about this new device that makes it particularly desirable for use in small children? How strong is cobalt chromium and what evidence exists that it can be expanded repeatedly over 1-2 decades? Can this technology supplant surgery for certain diseases such as native coarctation? What are the limitations of this device? We speak with the first author of the pivotal trial, Dr. Patrick Sullivan of CHLA who is Associate Professor of Pediatrics at Keck Medicine at USC.
