Transthoracic echocardiography and plasma B\u2010type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level were assessed before and at 24 hours; and 1, 3, and >6 months after the closure. Before the procedure, appropriate dose of warfarin was used in all, diuretics was used in 8\/9. Same amount of medications were continued after the procedure.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n ASD could be closed in all (mean device size 27.3 mm) without hemodynamic and thromboembolic complications. New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification was significantly improved in all patients after device closure. No hemodynamic and thromboembolic complications were observed during the follow\u2010up period (mean 10.6 months). Although permanent atrial fibrillation did not change in all after the procedure, resting heart rate decreased from 76.2 \u00b1 16.0 to 68.3 \u00b1 13.2 beats\/min (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.015). There was statistically significant improvement in right ventricular\/left ventricular diameter ratio (1.08 \u00b1 0.16 to 0.73 \u00b1 0.10,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.008) and plasma BNP level (183.7 \u00b1 90.5 to 94.6 \u00b1 47.4 pg\/mL,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.008) after >6 months device closure.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n Even in the patients complicated with permanent fibrillation, transcatheter closure of ASD can contribute to symptomatic improvement as well as cardiac geometric remodeling. \u00a9 2009 Wiley\u2010Liss, Inc.<\/jats:p>\n
