Our Story
Smart Stent is a stent of new era with multiple sensors. These sensors keep track of the deployed stent in patient's coronary artery. Currently the product is in its R&D stage and will be launched soon.
Our aim is to provide a novel, cost-effective solution to facilitate patients who are not currently capable of affording a stenting procedure; our aim is also to address the issues presently being faced by the international community in the treatment regimes related to coronary artery disease, by introducing a novel stent system that caters to treatment and disease monitoring at the same time. Internationally, the main challenge faced right now is late thrombosis after stent implantation or the migration of implanted stents.
