Transcatheter closure of secundum atrial septal defects is widely approved worldwide, yet it still has multiple risks like perforation and radiation exposure. In this study, we proposed a modified rapid method for closure of secundum atrial septal defects, to avoid material manipulation inside your heart and decrease complication rate.
Delivery sheath can be advanced over multipurpose catheter instead of stiff wire

deploying the Amplatzer delivery system of the Amplatzer™ Septal Occluders ASO inside the left atrial cavity over stiff wire into the pulmonary veins
deploying the Amplatzer delivery system of the Amplatzer™ Septal Occluders ASO over the multipurpose catheter inside the left atrial cavity which might help in the shortage of the duration \& the cost of the procedure with less complication rate
