Featured Structural Heart Occluders
AMPLATZER™ products for a range of defects
We design our AMPLATZER™ occluders to meet the unique anatomical needs associated with specific heart defects, including atrial septal defects (ASDs), patent foramen ovale (PFO), ventricular septal defects (VSDs), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and the left atrial appendage (LAA). With a variety of shapes and sizes and features that facilitate precise placement, our occluders have the potential to simplify procedures. And each offers the reliable performance and procedural flexibility you expect from our products.
The occluders featured here represent solutions with our latest technologies. You can find other occlusion devices and structural heart products in our full product catalog.
Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) Closure Devices
The AMPLATZER™ septal occluder, or ASO, is designed to appose the septal wall on both sides of a defect to create a platform for tissue in-growth after implantation.
Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) Closure Devices
Designed for flexibility, the AMPLATZER™ duct occluder II conforms to a variety of ducts while achieving complete closure from a pulmonary or aortic approach.
Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) Closure Devices
The AMPLATZER™ muscular VSD occluder features a double-disc design made from self-expandable Nitinol wire mesh, with a thick waist to accommodate ventricular tissue.
Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) Occlusion Devices
We have designed our AMPLATZER™ Amulet™ left atrial appendage occluder for precise positioning and seal of the LAA at the orifice.
Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) Occlusion Devices
DWe have designed the AMPLATZER™ cardiac plug to occlude the LAA at the base of the orifice, providing full cross-sectional coverage.
Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) Closure Devices
The AMPLATZER™ patent foramen ovale (PFO) occluder is a double-disc device designed to close all types of PFOs. Features of this occluder include its simple transcatheter deployment procedure.
