New heart implant successfully seals common birth defect without major surgery
NCT ID NCT02985684
Summary
This study tested a small, flexible implant device designed to permanently close a common type of hole in the heart wall (called an atrial septal defect or ASD). Doctors placed the device in 125 patients using a catheter through a blood vessel, avoiding open-heart surgery. The main goal was to see if the device was safe and could successfully close the hole for at least six months.
