Contents supplied STERILE using an ethylene oxide (EO) process. Do not use if sterile barrier
is damaged. If damage is found, call your Boston Scientific representative.
For single use only. Do not reuse, reprocess or resterilize. Reuse, reprocessing or
resterilization may compromise the structural integrity of the device and/or lead to device
failure which, in turn, may result in patient injury, illness or death. Reuse, reprocessing or
resterilization may also create a risk of contamination of the device and/or cause patient
infection or cross-infection, including, but not limited to, the transmission of infectious
disease(s) from one patient to another. Contamination of the device may lead to injury, illness
or death of the patient.
After use, dispose of product and packaging in accordance with hospital, administrative and/
or local government policy.
DevIce DescrIptIon
The SYNERGY Everolimus-Eluting Platinum Chromium Coronary Stent System (SYNERGY Stent
System) is a device/drug combination product comprised of two regulated components: a
device (coronary stent system) and a drug product (a formulation of everolimus contained in
a biodegradable polymer coating). SYNERGY is uniquely designed with a low initial polymer
load, abluminal coating and bioabsorbable polymer which may reduce the risk of thrombosis
and the need for prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy. The characteristics of the SYNERGY
Stent System are described in Table 1. SYNERGY Stent System Product Description.

Device component Description
The SYNERGY Stent System consists of a platinum chromium stent platform with an abluminal
drug/polymer coating mounted onto a Monorail Delivery System.
The SYNERGY stent is available in 3 stent models each designed for specific diameters as
follows:
• Small Vessel (SV): 2.25, 2.50 and 2.75 mm
• Workhorse (WH): 3.00 and 3.50 mm
• Large Vessel (LV): 4.00 mm

Drug eluting coating Description
The SYNERGY stent is a stent with a drug/polymer coating. The coating is comprised of a
polymer matrix that contains an active pharmaceutical ingredient.
See everolimus and polymer carrier sections for descriptions of drug and polymer, respectively.
everolimus
Everolimus is the active pharmaceutical ingredient in the SYNERGY stent.
The everolimus chemical name is 42-O-(2-hydroxyethyl)-rapamycin, and its chemical structure
is shown below in Figure 1.
