Abstract

Transcatheter closure has been widely accepted as a highly effective way to treat abnormal blood flows and/or embolization of thrombus in the heart. It allows the closure of four types of congenital heart defects (CHDs) and stroke-associated left atrial appendage (LAA). The four types of CHDs include atrial septal defect (ASD), patent foramen ovale (PFO), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), and ventricular septal defect (VSD). Advancements in the materials and configurations of occlusion devices have spurred the transition from open-heart surgery with high complexity and morbidity, or lifelong medication with a high risk of bleeding, to minimally invasive deployment. A variety of occlusion devices have been developed over the past few decades, particularly novel ones represented by biodegradable and 3D-printed occlusion devices, which are considered as next-generation alternatives to conventional Nitinol-based occlusion devices due to biodegradability, customization, and improved biocompatibility. The aim here is to comprehensively review the next-generation occlusion devices in terms of materials, configurations, manufacturing methods, deployment strategies, and (if available) experimental results or clinical data. The current cha...Continue Reading

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.

Acute Stroke

A stroke occurs when blood supply to the brain is interrupted depriving the brain of oxygen and nutrients. This feed focuses cerebrovascular accidents including ischemic and paralytic stroke.
