Types of ASD Treatment Procedures
CARE Hospitals offers different types of ASD treatment procedures tailored to each patient’s specific needs:
- Transcatheter ASD Closure: This minimally invasive procedure utilises a closure device to the heart, sealing the atrial septal defect without the need for open surgery.
- Open Heart Surgical Repair: This procedure involves accessing the heart through the chest to close larger or complex atrial septal defects directly.
- Robotic-assisted ASD Repair: A minimally invasive surgical option that uses advanced robotic technology to close atrial septal defects with precision.
- Patch Repair: Using synthetic material or the patient’s own tissue to close the defect. This procedure can be done during open-heart surgery or robotic-assisted repair.
Pre-treatment Preparation
Proper preparation is pivotal for the success of ASD treatment. Our cardiac team guides patients through detailed preparation steps, including:
- Comprehensive cardiac evaluation
- Echocardiogram and other imaging studies, such as cardiac CT scan and MRI
- Blood tests and electrocardiogram (ECG)
- Medication review and adjustments
- Preoperative counselling and emotional support
- Fasting instructions (if applicable)
ASD Treatment Procedure
The ASD treatment procedure at CARE Hospitals typically involves:
- For Transcatheter Closure:
- Administration of general anaesthesia or conscious sedation
- Insertion of a catheter through a vein in the leg
- Guidance of the closure device to the heart using fluoroscopy and echocardiography
- Deployment of the device to close the ASD
- Confirmation of proper placement and removal of the catheter
