[Evidence-based progress for the risk events of paclitaxel devices in treatment of peripheral artery disease].

With the development of endovascular technology for peripheral arterial diseases, paclitaxel drug-eluting stents and drug-coated balloons have been widely used in recent years. It has been proved that paclitaxel-coated devices have good clinical effects in reducing vascular restenosis. However, the clinical safety of paclitaxel devices has encountered challenges, some of the studies have shown that paclitaxel-coated devices may increase long-term mortality. In addition, some studies have confirmed the effectiveness and safety of paclitaxel devices, leading to this topic becoming the focus and hot spot of global attention. Whether paclitaxel-coated devices increase the risk of long-term death, whether paclitaxel doses are related to mortality, and the pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel devices should be examined.
