Innovative device manufactured in Ballybrit to benefit patients across Europe

Thu, Mar 14, 2013

The Promus PREMIER™ Stent System, a new generation coronary stent manufactured by Boston Scientific in Ballybrit, Galway, was successfully implanted for the first time worldwide at the Trinity Centre for Health Sciences at the 10th Annual Live PCI Course held at St. James Hospital this month. This is the seventh drug-eluting coronary stent developed and commercialised by Boston Scientific over the past 10 years.

By keeping the artery open, stents restore normal blood flow to narrowed or blocked arteries. Over time, the artery wall heals around the stent but excess healing tissue can grow and block up the stent again. Promus PREMIER™ Stent System is a drug-eluting stent (DES) – an ultra-thin and highly flexible metal stent that has been coated with a drug and a polymer, a compound designed to deliver a drug locally to reduce tissue in-growth. This lowers the risk of stent thrombosis and therefore re-blocking of the artery and improves the long term clinical results.
