OCCLUTECH FIGULLA FLEX II OCCLUDER, OPTIONS: FLEX II ASD, FLEX II PFO, FLEX II UNI
They are used for surgical closure of a secondary atrial septal defect. Such patients often have a reduced maximum elasticity value. Patients with symptoms of shortness of breath or a left-to-right blood flow episode (Qp/Qs?1.5) are indicated for closure of the defect. The readings also show the measured oxygen saturation in the atrium.
Description
Occlutech Figulla Flex II consists of a nitinol mesh with “shape memory” properties. The flexible clamp connects two small locking discs and, after deployment, fully matches the interatrial septum. Two very thin PET patches provide rapid sealing of the atrial septal defect and optimize tissue ingrowth.
