New heart device aims to patch holes without surgery
NCT ID NCT05329350
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing a device called the Occlutech mVSD Occluder to close a type of hole in the heart (muscular ventricular septal defect) without open surgery. The device is inserted through a blood vessel in the leg and guided to the heart. Researchers will follow 50 patients for one year to see if the device safely closes the hole and reduces blood flow problems. The goal is to offer a less invasive treatment option for people with this heart condition.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Occlutech muscular ventricular septal defect (mVSD) occluder (a self-expanding mesh device implanted via catheter to close a hole in the heart)
What this could lead to
If successful, this device could offer a less invasive, non-surgical option to close muscular ventricular septal defects, potentially reducing recovery time and surgical risks.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage follow-up study with only 50 participants. The device may cause serious complications like stroke, heart block, or device movement. Long-term benefits and risks are not yet fully known.
