Results for tag: "Vascular Stent"

A vascular stent is a medical device used to treat narrowed or blocked arteries. It is a small, metal tube that is inserted into the artery to keep it open and allow blood to flow freely. The stent is usually made of a metal mesh or a polymer material. It is designed to be flexible and expandable, allowing it to fit into the artery and remain in place. The vascular stent market is a rapidly growing segment of the medical device industry. It is driven by the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, such as coronary artery disease, and the need for minimally invasive treatments. The market is expected to continue to grow as new technologies and materials are developed to improve the safety and efficacy of stents. Some of the major players in the vascular stent market include Abbott, Boston Scientific, Medtronic, B. Braun, and Terumo. Show Less Read more
