Closure of Ventricular Septal Defects (VSD)
Ventricular septal defects are the most commonly found congenital heart defect.1 There are four types of VSDs: muscular, perimembranous, conal or subpulmonary, and inlet. Abbott offers Amplatzer Muscular and Membranous VSD Occluders for complete closure of muscular and perimembranous VSDs.
Quality Engineering
Device Features
- Device waist centers and closes the defect
- Symmetrical design allows a transcatheter femoral or arterial delivery approach
- Constructed from self-expanding Nitinol mesh and polyester material, which promotes tissue in-growth
- Precise placement through the device’s ability to be recaptured and redeployed
Amplatzer™ Muscular VSD Occluder
The Amplatzer™ Muscular VSD Occluder is intended for the closure of congenital ventricular septal defects in high-risk surgical patients. The 7 mm waist length is designed to accommodate the thickness of the muscular ventricular septal wall.
Amplatzer™ P.I. Muscular VSD Occluder
The Amplatzer™ P.I. Muscular VSD Occluder is intended for the closure of post myocardial infarction (P.I.) VSD. The 10 mm waist length is designed to accommodate the damaged muscular tissue of the septal wall following a myocardial infarction.
Amplatzer™ Membranous VSD Occluder
The Amplatzer™ Membranous VSD Occluder is intended for the closure of hemodynamically significant perimembranous VSDs. The non-concentric design enables placement without interfering with the aortic or atrioventricular valves.
Designed for Optimal Occlusion
Amplatzer Muscular and Membranous Occluders are self-expandable, double-disc devices made from a nitinol wire mesh and polyester material which promote tissue in-growth. The two discs are linked together by a connecting waist corresponding to the size of the VSD, providing optimal occlusion. These percutaneous, transcatheter devices can be recaptured and redeployed for precise placement.
