Embolic protection devices for carotid artery stenting: A network meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: PB deployment during CAS is superior to DF and DB in preventing distal embolization phenomena. However, no statistically significant difference in TIA and stroke rate was found among any of the analyzed EPD groups. Further research is warranted to investigate the association of embolic phenomena on imaging after CAS with clinically significant neurologic deficits.PMID:36394946 | DOI:10.1177/17085381221140616
