AMPLATZER Duct Occluder, Order No. 9-PDA-007, Device Size 12/10mm, Length 8 mm. Sterile EO. Single Use Only. Manufactured by AGA Medical Corporation, 682 Mendelssohn Avenue, Golden Valley, MN 55427 USA. The AMPLATZER Duct Occluder is a self-expandable device made from a Nitinol wire mesh. A retention skirt on the aortic side provides secure positioning in the ampulla of the ductus. As the occluder is implanted, it expands outward and the wires push against the wall of the ductus. Polyester fabric is sewn into the occluder with polyester thread. The fabric induces thrombosis that closes the communication.
