Atrium Septal Defect
Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is a congenital defect of the heart where there is a hole on the wall (septum) dividing the upper chambers (atria) of the heart. Often if the hole is small enough, it may close on its own; however, medium to large holes will require surgical intervention to prevent long-term medical complications.
CAD Insertion, Adult
Cardiac or circulatory assist devices are artificial devices that perform some or all of the functions of the heart. They vary in design and indication but are typically used to provide either partial or full support for a heart that is unable to function adequately. They are used as a bridge to transplant, to recovery and in destination therapy. The goal of destination therapy is to support heart function and improve the quality of life for the rest of the patient's life. They can support either the left or right ventricles independently or both simultaneously. They are commonly referred to as LVAD, RVAD, and BiVAD.
