Amplatzer Septal Occluder | Atrial Septal Defect Closure

AMPLATZER™ SEPTAL
OCCLUDER
STRUCTURAL INTERVENTIONS

The primary treatment option for atrial septal defects (ASD) is percutaneous,
transcatheter closure, and Abbott’s Amplatzer™ Septal Occluder is the proven
standard of care^2,5—with more than 20 years of global clinical experience in ASD closure.¹

Two Amplatzer™ ASD Closure Devices for Optimizing Patient Care

Abbott offers two devices for percutaneous, transcatheter ASD closure.

Amplatzer™ Septal Occluder

The Amplatzer™ Septal Occluder, approved in the U.S. since 2001, is intended for patients with an ASD in the secundum position or patients who have undergone a fenestrated Fontan procedure and who now require closure of the fenestration.⁶

The Amplatzer Septal Occluder is designed for ASD closure:

Shaped-memory nitinol mesh that securely apposes both sides of the septal wall
A wide waist that centers the device and fills the ASD
Polyester material that promotes occlusion and tissue in-growth
Can be recaptured and redeployed for precise placement⁶

The Amplatzer Septal Occluder has the widest range of device sizes, from 4mm to 40mm, enabling the treatment of the widest range of ASD defects.

Amplatzer™ Cribriform Multi-Fenestrated Septal Occluder

The Amplatzer™ Cribriform Occluder is a percutaneous, transcatheter, ASD device intended for the closure of multifenestrated (cribriform) ASDs.¹⁰ Multiple, or fenestrated, ASDs that require closure are not uncommon. In fact, nearly 10% of patients with secundum-type ASD are found to have multifenestrated ASDs.⁷

In many ways similar to the Amplatzer Septal Occluder, the Amplatzer Cribriform design features include:

Self-expanding, double-disc device designed for closure of multi-fenestrated ASDs
Matched disc diameters that maximize coverage of multiple fenestrations
Ability to be easily recaptured and redeployed for optimal placement¹

The Amplatzer Cribriform Occluder disc diameters range from 18 mm to 40 mm.
