It's Not Which Stent; It's Why Stent?

By George Lundberg, MD, Editor-at-Large, MedPage Today  | January 24, 2011




Hello and welcome. I'm Dr. George Lundberg and this is At Large at MedPage Today.
In 1911, George Bernard Shaw famously wrote "All professions are a conspiracy against the laity".
One hundred years later, in 2011, I write "the MBA has done more to harm the public through bottom-line hospital administration than have many dread diseases".
As an example, the continuing saga of this stent, that stent, the other stent placed into as many coronary and other arteries as often and as fast as possible does show some signs of waning. See the New York Times url:
