Cardiac interventions like device closures are minimally invasive procedures used to treat certain types of heart defects, such as atrial septal defects (ASDs), ventricular septal defects (VSDs), and patent ductus arteriosus (PDAs). These procedures involve inserting a small, specially designed device (like a Button) through a catheter into the heart. The device is then deployed to close the hole or abnormal opening, restoring normal blood flow.

Device closures offer several advantages over traditional open-heart surgery, including:

1. Minimally Invasive: Smaller incisions and less trauma to the body.

2. Shorter Recovery Time: Patients can often return home within a few hours/days.

3. Lower Risk of Complications: Reduced risk of bleeding, infection, and other surgical risks.
