IBS Angel™ Iron Bioresorbable Scaffold is made of a nitrided pure iron backbone treated with laser cutting process. It is a drug-free absorbable pure metal scaffold.
As an absorbable stent, IBS Angel™ can degrade while maintaining its mechanical properties in a period of about 2 years, which is much longer than the degradation period of other BRS. It can make the blood vessels have a higher patency rate and greatly reduce the possibility of restenosis or vascular collapse. At the same time, its degradation products have been verified by multiple parties many times that they will not cause biological toxicity and can be implanted twice.
○ Backbone: Made from a high-purity nitrided iron-tube, with excellent mechanical properties (radial strength), which can provide effective support for blood vessels
○ Degradation: The degradation period is about 2-3 years. It provides effective support 6 months after implantation and begins to degrade about 12 months later when the blood vessels have nearly recovered. 2 years after implantation, the scaffold is completely degraded.
○ Re-implantation: Compared with permanent stents, the IBS stent is completely degraded, and it can be re-implanted in the same position without causing harm or adding burden to the blood vessels or the human body.
