Atrial septal defects are the third most common type of congenital heart disease. Included in this group of malformations are several types of atrial communications that allow shunting of blood between the systemic and the pulmonary circulations.

Motion estimation of vortical blood flow within the right atrium in a patient with atrial septal defect [PDF]
Copyright © 2007 IEEEPatients with an atrial septal defect (ASD) have a left to right shunt with associated complications. Currently, various imaging modalities, including echocardiography and invasive cardiac catheterization, are utilized in the ...

Rescue atrial septal defect closure with the new GORE® cardioform atrial septal defect occluder
Atrioventricular block (AVB) is an infrequent but life-threatening complication of transcatheter closure of atrial septal defect (ASD), accounting for 0.1%–6.2% of cases in large series.

Transcatheter closure of Ventricular Septal defects in Malta : initial experience [PDF]
Ventricular septal defects (VSD) consist of deficiencies of the wall separating the two ventricles. VSDs are the commonest congenital cardiac defects. Small VSDs rarely require intervention, however, larger defects cause ventricular volume overload with ...

Abstract figure legend Stasis before and after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) in participants with high stasis and low stasis. Stasis is predominantly located in LAA and reduced after LAAO. But in the participant with high stasis, stasis remains close to the occlusion site, indicating a potential risk for device related thrombi.

Fabrication and characterization of chitosan nanoparticles and collagen-loaded polyurethane nanocomposite membrane coated with heparin for atrial septal defect (ASD) closure [PDF]
Atrial septal defect (ASD) constitutes 30–40% of all congenital heart diseases in adults. The most common complications in the treatment of ASD are embolization of the device and thrombosis formation.

ABSTRACT Altered cardiac orientation in the presence of a patent foramen ovale (PFO) can contribute to platypnea–orthodeoxia syndrome (POS) and unexplained hypoxemia. In such cases, consideration of PFO closure may lead to significant clinical improvement.
