Cera ASD closure device long-term follow-up study
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows up with patients who already received the Cera ASD occluder device to close a hole in the heart (atrial septal defect). It looks at how well the device is working over time and checks for any late problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a type of hole in the heart called a secundum atrial septal defect (ASD).
- You were implanted with the Cera ASD Occluder between January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2023, following the device's instructions.
- You are willing to let the researchers collect and use your medical data, and you (or your legal representative) can sign a consent form.
- You do not have other complex heart problems that would need surgery to fix.
- You did not have a serious infection in the month before your implant, or any active infection that could not be treated before the procedure.
- You do not have a bleeding disorder, untreated ulcer, or other condition that prevents taking aspirin or another anti-platelet medicine for 6 months.
- You had no blood clots in your heart seen on an echocardiogram before the implant.

This study follows people who had an atrial septal defect (a hole between heart chambers) closed using a specific device. It aims to collect outcomes and safety information after the hospital procedure.
This trial tests a new absorbable device designed to close a hole in the wall between the heart's upper chambers (atrial septal defect or ASD). The device is placed through a catheter—a thin tube—without open-heart surgery, and may help prevent heart problems from the hole over time.
This trial looks at whether a special 3D ultrasound picture helps doctors safely place a small device to close an atrial septal defect (ASD), a hole in the heart’s upper chambers. If you need ASD closure and are suitable for a device, the results could help improve guidance and outcomes.
This trial tests if a wearable ECG device can help monitor people recovering from a procedure to close a hole in the heart (atrial septal defect or patent foramen ovale). It aims to find better ways to detect heart rhythm problems after treatment.
This trial monitors children who had a ventricular septal defect (VSD) closed with a device to see how they do over time. It checks if the closure stays effective and if there are any long-term issues.
This follow-up study monitors how well and how safely the Occlutech mVSD device works to close certain muscular heart “holes” (ventricular septal defects). You may join if you already had the device placed and can return for scheduled checkups to help doctors learn long-term outcomes.
