Brief description Arteries that have been surgically treated to remove fatty lesions that block blood flow frequently become re-blocked (restenosed), and drugs to prevent this re-blockage often have bad side-effects. We propose to prevent these complications by target-delivering the drugs directly and only to the required site using a single injection at the time of surgery. This will limit systemic side-effects, treatment costs and incidence of reblocking and bleeding complications.
