The FDA has recently approved the REBEL Platinum Chromium Coronary Stent System (Monorail and Over-the-Wire) to be marketed. The REBEL Stent System consists of a bare metal stent and a delivery catheter. The stent is made from a platinum chromium alloy and is used to treat coronary artery disease. The stent is the same design as the Promus Premier Stent, but without the drug component. The delivery catheter is used to place the REBEL Stent into a diseased/narrowed blood vessel (coronary artery) supplying oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle. The REBEL Stent System is only for single-use.
