Amplatzer™ Talisman™ PFO OccluderProduct Code (REF): 9-PFO-1818
Over 25 years ago, Abbott pioneered PFO closure with the Amplatzer™ PFO Occluder. With the introduction of the Amplatzer Talisman PFO Occluder, that proven Amplatzer PFO closure technology has been built upon: the occluder now comes assembled and ready to use, simplifying prep and enhancing ease of use. The 30 mm size has been refined to have a smaller left atrial disc to better avoid interference with surrounding structures. The occluder is offered in four sizes, from a right atrial / left atrial disc combination of 18 mm / 18 mm up to 35 mm / 25 mm, with recommended sheath sizes of 8 F or 9 F (45° curve). Device selection follows the published sizing guidelines: a 25 mm device is suggested for a simple PFO or PFO with a non-prominent ASA; a 30 or 35 mm device for complex PFO with anatomical characteristics such as an atrial septal aneurysm with a long tunnel or thickened septum secundum; and an 18 mm device for PFO with small anatomy (septal primum length < 20 mm). Abbott advises evaluating device position after deployment but before detachment, using echocardiography to ensure the device does not impinge on the free atrial wall or aortic root, and recapturing and redeploying if position is unsatisfactory.

Request DocumentationFrequently Asked Questions
- What is new about the Amplatzer™ Talisman™ PFO Occluder?
- The Amplatzer Talisman PFO Occluder builds upon Abbott's proven Amplatzer PFO closure technology. It now comes assembled and ready to use, simplifying prep and enhancing ease of use, and the 30 mm size has been refined with a smaller left atrial disc to better avoid interference with surrounding structures.
- What sizes and sheath sizes are available?
- The occluder is offered in four sizes: 9-PFO-1818 (18/18 mm), 9-PFO-2518 (25/18 mm), 9-PFO-3025 (30/25 mm) and 9-PFO-3525 (35/25 mm), where the dimensions are right atrial disc / left atrial disc diameter. The 18 and 25 mm devices use an 8 F sheath and the 30 and 35 mm devices use a 9 F sheath, each with a 45° curve.
- How is device size selected?
- Per the published sizing guidelines, a 25 mm device is suggested for a simple PFO or PFO with a non-prominent ASA; a 30 or 35 mm device for complex PFO with characteristics such as an atrial septal aneurysm with a long tunnel or thickened septum secundum; and an 18 mm device for PFO with small anatomy (septal primum length < 20 mm).
- What should be checked before device detachment?
- Abbott advises evaluating the position of the device after deployment but before detachment, using echocardiography to ensure the device does not impinge on the free atrial wall or aortic root. If the device interferes with an adjacent structure, it should be recaptured and redeployed, or replaced with a smaller device.
