Effectiveness of a planned strategy using cardiac rehabilitation nurses for the management of dyslipidemia in patients with coronary artery disease.

abstract：:The purpose of this study was to evaluate feasibility, safety, and efficacy of implantation of unsheathed Palmaz-Schatz coronary stents via the radial artery. Anticoagulation after coronary stenting has the hazard of vascular complications if large-bore guiding catheters are introduced via the femoral artery. Such com...
