A Finite Element Investigation on Material and Design Parameters of Ventricular Septal Defect Occluder Devices

Background and Objective: Ventricular septal defects (VSDs) are the most common form of congenital heart defects. The incidence of VSD accounts for 40% of all congenital heart defects (CHDs). With the development of interventional therapy technology, transcatheter VSD closure was introduced as an al...
