NCT03373929

Brief Summary

The purpose of the STITCH study is to evaluate closure rates of clinically relevant septal defects, including patent foramen ovale (PFO), Atrial Septal Defects (ASD - less than 1 cm with redundant septal tissue), trans septal puncture sites, repair of Atrial Septal Aneurysm (ASA) and rate of recurrent neurologic embolic events in patients with cryptogenic stroke and PFO.

PFO Closure Rate

OTHER

Evaluate closure rate of clinically relevant septal defects including PFO, ASD (less than 1 cm with redundant septal tissue), trans septal puncture sites, repair of ASA (when an appropriate PFO or small ASD defect is present) and rate of recurrent neurologic embolic event in patients with cryptogenic stroke and PFO
