Polymer-based bioresorbable scaffolds (BRS) seek to eliminate long-term complications of metal stents. However, current BRS designs bear substantially higher incidence of clinical failures, especially thrombosis, compared with metal stents. Research strategies inherited from metal stents fail to consider polymer microstructures and dynamics—issues...
