PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: During the procedure

Population: The analysis population included all prospectively enrolled subjects only (N=80) who have an attempted device placement (defined as the delivery system enters the subject's body in an attempt to place a device), as retrospectively enrolled subjects were selected based on established Technical Success.

Technical success was defined as successful deployment of the device (Amplatzer™ Muscular VSD Occluder) in subjects with the ventricular septal defect (VSD).

Timeframe: 1-year follow-up visit

Population: The analysis of the shunt closure success included all enrolled subjects who had an attempted device placement (defined as the delivery system enters the subject's body in an attempt to place a device) and a 1-year follow-up visit.

Subjects in whom a defect has ≤ 2 mm residual shunt at the 1-year follow-up visit (as evaluated by the independent echocardiography board).
