Effects of age on hemodynamic changes after transcatheter closure of atrial septal defect: importance of ventricular diastolic function

Some older patients develop symptoms of clinical heart failure after closure of an atrial septal defect (ASD). The present study tested the hypothesis that baseline hemodynamics and hemodynamic changes induced by transcatheter ASD closure are different between younger and older patients due to age-r...
