Nit-Occlud® PDA occlusion system is designed for the safe and effective occlusion of the congenital heart defect PDA (Persistent Ductus Arteriosus). Two different types and a broad variety of sizes make the unique spiral-shaped occlusion device the ideal choice for the closure of all PDA types.
The first pfm medical PDA coil system was introduced in 1993. Since 2001 our 2nd generation system – Nit-Occlud® PDA – is being successfully used worldwide.
The Nit-Occlud® PDA types Flex and Medium vary in size and flexibility to match individual PDA morphologies and sizes.
The delivery system facilitates optimal device positioning. Tight and compact windings ensure efficient occlusion.
The degree of stiffness decreases from the distal to the proximal windings, allowing the coil to adapt perfectly to the anatomy of various PDA types.
The specially developed application system is easy to use. It is inserted by means of a 4 – 5 F implantation catheter. The coil is repositionable and retrievable prior to release.
