Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does the type of embolic protection influence the outcome in carotid artery stenting?
Answer: The use of EPDs is associated with a low risk of procedural adverse events. We were unable to detect significant differences in risks of procedural adverse events between different devices or types of devices. We speculate that the observed differences seen at 30 days are largely attributable to differences in stent-type used.
Output (English): no
