At Sri Raju Heart & Skin Hospital, our Device Closure Facility offers cutting-edge, non-surgical treatment options for congenital heart defects like Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) and Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA). These conditions involve abnormal openings in the heart that allow blood to flow inappropriately between chambers or vessels, potentially leading to heart enlargement, pulmonary hypertension, or heart failure if left untreated.

Our expert interventional cardiology team performs transcatheter closure procedures, a minimally invasive alternative to open-heart surgery. This technique involves guiding a specially designed closure device through a catheter inserted into a vein, typically in the groin, and placing it precisely at the defect site. Once deployed, the device seals the abnormal opening and allows the surrounding heart tissue to grow over it naturally.

The benefits of device closure procedures are significant: reduced hospital stay, minimal scarring, lower infection risk, and faster recovery times. Patients, especially children and young adults, experience significant improvement in their symptoms, physical stamina, and overall heart function.

Backed by our state-of-the-art cath lab and advanced imaging technologies, these procedures are performed with exceptional precision and safety. Our cardiac team ensures thorough pre-procedural evaluations, including Echocardiography, ECG, and Holter Monitoring, to determine candidacy and post-procedural care protocols.

By offering this advanced treatment modality, Sri Raju Heart & Skin Hospital continues to provide world-class cardiac interventions right in the heart of Kallakurichi, making complex cardiac care accessible and affordable for the region’s communities.
