s/l "indoor" or "Imdur" stents - je suis MT
Posted: May 27, 2010
The patient had cardiac catheterization done on 4/1/10, with <__________> stents.
It mostly sounds like "indur" stents...
hmm - rc
[ In Reply To ..]I could be way off with this but hopefully give an idea...there is an "endoluminal" (maybe they're shortening to endo) stent...its used to maintain an open lumen hope this helps
endo-sm - je suis MT
[ In Reply To ..]We (my helpful co-worker & I) wondered about that or "endovascular" but it sure didn't sound like that.
We also considered "Endeavor stent" but it didn't sound like that, either.

If it's not right.... - evolved
