Abstract

The Angel Wings Das device, a recently developed transcatheter atrial septal defect occluder, represents a new approach to therapy of this congenital cardiac lesion. Overall, successful defect occlusion occurs in > 90% of patients following device implantation. We describe the major design and technical issues pertinent to this device and review both international and personal local FDA Phase I trial results and complications. Future trial plans and device modifications are discussed.
