Our physicians pioneered the use of stenting through
small gauge catheters. This procedure enables patients to
experience less peripheral arterial trauma, to receive less
radiocontrast and to be discharged earlier. Our staff has
extensive experience in stenting patients with acute myocardial
infarction; other hospitals are just beginning to use this
approach. A full 80 percent of our patients receive stents
with an exceptionally low clinical recurrence rate: less than
10 percent of our patients require repeat interventions. Forty
percent of our patients undergo multilesion/multivessel stenting.
