Product Description
MemoPart™ Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) Occluder is a self-expanding double-disc nitinol mesh occlusion device.The 2 discs are connected by a short waist which corresponds to the defect size. Polyester fabric is securely sewnto each disc to secure the occlusion. The device is visible under X-ray.
For membranous ventricular septal defect:
The MemoPartTM Membranous VSD Occluder is used for minimally invasive transcatheter closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defects.
For muscular’ ventricular septal defect:
1. Patient with a complex ventricular septal defect (VSD) of significant size to warrant closure (large
volume left to right shunt, pulmonary hypertension, and/or clinical symptoms of congestive heart failure)
2. Patients who are considered to be at high risk for standard transatrial or transarterial surgical closure
based on anatomical conditions and/or based on overall medical condition. High-risk anatomical factors
for transatrial OI transarterial surgical closure include patients:
- Requiring left ventriculotomy 01 an extensive right ventriculotomy.
- With a failed previous VSD closure.
- With multiple apical and/or anterior muscular VSDs (“Swiss cheese septum”).
- With posterior apical VSDs covered by trabeculae.
