Long-term safety of heart hole closure
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at the long-term safety of a procedure called PFO closure, which closes a small hole in the heart. If you've had this procedure, researchers want to track any device or procedure-related problems over time to improve care for future patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had a procedure to close a PFO (a small hole in the heart).
- You can commit to follow-up visits or surveys required by the study.

This study looks at how well patients do over time after having a hole in their heart (patent foramen ovale, or PFO) closed with a small device inserted through a vein. It may help doctors understand the benefits and risks of the procedure.
This trial looks at the safety and results of closing a PFO (a small hole in the heart) in people who have had a stroke or embolism with no other clear cause. If you qualify, doctors will close your PFO using a small tube inserted through a blood vessel and then follow your health over time.
This trial tests a device called the Snowy PFO Closure System, which is meant to close a small hole in the heart (PFO) that can let blood clots pass to the brain and cause strokes or migraines. The device is inserted through a small tube, and the study aims to see if it is safe and works well.
This trial tests a new device to close a PFO (a small hole between the upper chambers of the heart) in people who have had a stroke caused by a blood clot. The goal is to prevent future strokes by blocking the hole.
This study is for people who have migraines and a small hole in their heart called a patent foramen ovale (PFO). It will track your health over time to learn more about how these conditions are related.
This trial studies whether a Cera™ device is safe and effective for closing a patent foramen ovale (PFO), a small hole in the heart. It is for adults whose PFO is linked to certain types of stroke or ongoing clot-related events.
