Arnold H. Seto , MD, MPA, CCDS, FACC, FSCAI;

Jordan G. Safirstein , MD, FACC, FSCAI;

The STAT2 trial is a follow-up study that enrolled 443 patients and attempted a full deflation of the TR Band at 60 minutes for both arms of the study, which offered more of an apples-to-apples comparison than the pilot study.

The STAT2 trial is a follow-up...
