Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) Closure

Ultrasept PFO’s patented technology has been developed for permanent percutaneous closure of the Patent Foramen Ovale, while maximally respecting the anatomy of the heart.

Specifications:

Its structure has been designed with braided nitinol for better flexibility, in the form of a double disc covered by membranes.

Thanks to its light and flexible structure, it adapts to the cardiac anatomy as much as possible and maintains a series of advantages for the patient:

  • Indication for transseptal passage of material through the device in future procedures
  • Adaptation to any septal anatomy, including septa with lipomatous hypertrophy.
  • Low rate of post-implant atrial fibrillation (AF).
  • Left disc with a completely flat and smooth surface, without exposure of any metallic element in the left atrium.
Available in four sizes that cover a wide range of anatomical measurements.
Specifications:
  • Membrane covered double disc PFO closure device.
  • Recoverable and repositionable.
  • Compatible with 9Fr, 10Fr and 11Fr release system.
