Abstrakt:	Background: The EverPro TM (Sahajanand Laser Technology Ltd., India) everolimus-eluting coronary stent system (EES) is a second-generation drug-eluting stent with a biodegradable polymer. Aim: To determine the safety and performance of the EverPro TM EES in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) during a 1-year clinical follow-up. Methods: This observational, retrospective, single-center study enrolled patients who had been implanted with the EverPro TM stent between June 1, 2018 and January 31, 2019, and had completed a 1-year follow-up period after the index procedure. The primary clinical endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 6 mo defined as the composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction (MI), and target lesion revascularization (TLR). Secondary endpoints were the incidence of TLR at 1, 6 and 12 mo follow-up, MACE at 1 and 12 mo follow-up, and stent thrombosis up to 1 year after the index procedure. Results: The study population comprised 77 patients (98 lesions). A total of 37 (48.1%) patients had comorbid hypertension. In total, 26 (33.8%) patients presented with ST segment elevation MI and 10.4% patients with non-ST segment elevation MI. Treated lesions were located mainly in the left anterior descending artery (49%) followed by the right coronary artery (29.6%), left circumflex (12.2%) and obtuse marginal (9.2%) arteries. The majority of patients were with single-vessel disease (79%), 22.2% of lesions had a mild to severe thrombus load, and 94.9% were American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association type B or C. De novo stenting was performed in 96.9% of patients and 3% were treated for in-stent restenosis. Procedural success was attained in all patients. In-hospital or follow-up MACE and stent thrombosis were not reported during the 1-year follow-up period. Conclusion: These findings suggest that the EverPro TM EES is a safe and effective treatment option with no MACE or stent thrombosis reported during the 1-year study period in patients with CAD.
