AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Aged between 18 and 65 years.
* Presence of a patent foramen ovale (PFO) confirmed by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) or transesophageal echocardiography (TEE).
* Presence of a moderate-to-large right-to-left shunt (RLS) at rest or during the Valsalva maneuver, as confirmed by agitated saline contrast echocardiography (also known as bubble study).
* Clinically diagnosed with a PFO-associated ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA).
Exclusion Criteria:
* An alternative, clearly identified cause of ischemic stroke or TIA (other than PFO) is determined by the investigator.
* Large territory cerebral infarction within 4 weeks prior to the planned procedure.
* Atherosclerotic stenosis (\>50%) of the carotid or vertebral arteries, as confirmed by CT angiography or vascular ultrasound per investigator assessment.
* Presence of intracardiac thrombus or vegetation as confirmed by echocardiography.
* Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \< 35%.
* Atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter.
* Left ventricular aneurysm or severe regional wall motion abnormality.
* Significant valvular stenosis or regurgitation, or history of valvular replacement or repair surgery.
* Pulmonary hypertension or a PFO constituting a special conduit (e.g., right-to-left shunt due to elevated right heart pressures).
* Other confirmed causes of right-to-left shunt, such as atrial septal defect (ASD) or pulmonary arteriovenous fistula.
* Complex PFO anatomy (e.g., multi-t…
