Randomized controlled trials for in-stent restenosis (ISR) and de novo lesions in small-diameter vessels have shown promising results, but data on DCB use in real-world practice are still scarce. The aim of the PEARL (Paclitaxel-Eluting...

The different design is thought to increase back pressure, redistributing blood flow more fully through small vessels in the heart that were not working at capacity.
