Recruitment Details
Key information relevant to the recruitment process for the overall study, such as dates of the recruitment period and locations
Between January 2006 to September 2007 we enrolled 200 patients in the trial.

Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
From 1274 patients with coronary angiography, 789 met clinical inclusion criteria, from whom 102 have angiographic exclusion criteria. 487 were excluded for inability for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug eluting stent (DES) deployment or refuse to participate in the study; thus 200 patients were included in this randomized trial.

Certain Agreements:  
Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study.
There is NOT an agreement between Principal Investigators and the Sponsor (or its agents) that restricts the PI's rights to discuss or publish trial results after the trial is completed.


Limitations and Caveats
Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data
It was an open label design. Multiple approved DES designs were used. Health Care system in Argentina differs from other world ones.
