ASD VSD PDA DEVICE CLOSURE

The top two chambers are known as atria and the bottom chambers are known as ventricles. All the four Chambers are separated from each other by a wall. However, in some people, there might be a hole or opening in this wall, which allows the free flow of blood to the other side. Device closure aims at closing such openings using metallic devices, so as to regulate the normal functioning of the heart. 

ASD - It stands for atrial septal device closure. The procedure is performed to treat atrial septal defect, which is marked by an opening between the left atrium and the right atrium. 

VSD - It stands for ventricular septal device closure. The procedure is performed to treat the ventricular septal defect. 

PDA - It stands for patent ductus arteriosus. It is marked by an opening or hole in the blood vessels.
