Brief summary

The Occlutech® mVSD is indicated for percutaneous occlusion of hemodynamically or clinically significant muscular ventricular septal defects. The objectives of the study are: * To confirm the efficacy of Occlutech mVSD in patients requiring transcatheter occlusion (closure) of muscular ventricular septal defects. * To confirm the safety of Occlutech mVSD in patients requiring transcatheter occlusion (closure) of muscular ventricular septal defects.

Detailed description

This is a multicenter, prospective, and retrospective, international, post-market clinical follow-up Study to monitor the efficacy and safety of the Occlutech mVSD in patients with muscular ventricular septal defects. Safety and efficacy of implanted devices are assessed by echocardiography, vital signs, laboratory tests, and ECGs on Day 1 (within 48 hours post-procedure), follow-up 1 (between Day 30 and Day 60), follow-up 2 at 6 months (from Day 61 until 6 months), follow-up 3 at 1 year (from 6 months until 1 year), and follow-up 4 at 3 years (from 1 year until 3 years). * Patients will be screened to determine eligibility for the registry based on inclusion/exclusion criteria, through their medical history, demographics, vital signs, clinical laboratory tests, performance of a 12 lead electrocardiogram (ECG) and echocardiography data. * Participants are treated according to the instructions-for-use (IFU) of the device and according to clinical routine. * Procedures are performed at sites having appropriate laboratory support and adequately trained imaging personnel. The procedure is performed by physicians with experience in a wide range of interventional cardiology and structural heart disease, including transcatheter patent ductus arteriosus, atrial septal defect, and ventricular septal defect (VSD) closures. Recruitment will be open until 50 Patients have been enrolled. The primary safety endpoint is defined as the incidence of Serious Adverse Device Effects (SADEs) including procedure-related death, procedure-related stroke, ischemic stroke, systemic embolism, severe hemolysis, complete heart block requiring pacemaker implantation or device explanation, new onset of severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR), new the onset of severe aortic regurgitation (AR), severe right-left ventricular outflow obstruction (RVOTO-LVOTO), device embolization, cardiac tamponade, infective endocarditis, or vascular complications requiring open heart surgery up to 1 year after the mVSD closure procedure. The primary efficacy endpoints will include data obtained 1 year after the mVSD closure procedure for successful implantation of the device with a proper closure of the mVSD (defined as the reduction in muscular ventricular septal shunt to trivial or no shunt at all, as assessed by echocardiography pre- vs post-implantation).

Interventions

DEVICEOcclutech muscular ventricular septal defect (mVSD) Occluder

Percutaneous, transcatheter (catheter-based) non-surgical closure of a muscular ventricular septal defect (mVSD) using the Occlutech mVSD Occluder. The device is a self-expandable nitinol wire-mesh occluder with two retention discs connected by a flexible waist and incorporates polyester/PET patches to support defect occlusion and tissue ingrowth. Implantation is performed by experienced operators in a specialized cath lab according to the IFU and local routine; device sizing/selection is guided by imaging (e.g., transthoracic echocardiography, angiography, fluoroscopy). The system is deployed using compatible Occlutech delivery accessories (e.g., Occlutech Pistol Pusher and Occlutech Delivery Set \[ODS v1 or ODS III\], as applicable).
