  • the presently disclosed subject matter relates generally to transseptal access devices and more particularly to a transseptal access stability system (TASS) for reducing complications that may arise when performing transseptal punctures.
  • TASS transseptal access stability system
  • the left atrium of the heart is a challenging cardiac chamber to access
  • Puncturing the interatrial septum a procedure known as a transseptal puncture, permits a direct route from the right atrium to the left atrium.
  • Transseptal puncture procedures often involve the use of a venous sheath housing a needle capable of puncturing the interatrial septum through the fossa ovale and are critical for many invasive procedures performed in a cardiac catheterization laboratory.
  • Transseptal puncture procedures come with a significant risk of complications, many of which can be serious and life-threatening. While the incidence of complications has been reduced through advancements in sheath and real-time imaging technology, certain anatomic variations can increase the risk of serious complications. In particular, patients with atrial septal aneurysms remain at a particularly high risk of cardiac perforation that may require emergent cardiac surgery or even result in death. Current tools aimed to improve the safety profile of transseptal puncture procedures have limited efficacy.
  • the presently disclosed subject matter provides a transseptal access stability system (TASS) comprising a cardiac catheter, wherein the cardiac catheter comprises: a venous sheath comprising an orifice defined by a rim at a distal end thereof, wherein the rim is configured to secure a fossa ovale thereto, and wherein the venous sheath is fluidly coupled to at least one of a vacuum source and a cryoenergy source at a proximal end thereof; and a hollow dilator having a transseptal needle operationally positioned therein, wherein the dilator and needle are axially positioned through the venous sheath and wherein the dilator and the needle each have a distal end configured to protrude from the orifice at the distal end of the venous sheath and are adapted to be advanced and retracted to puncture a interatrial septum through the fossa ovale.

  • the term "fossa ovale” refers to a depression in the right atrium of the heart and is the remnant of a thin fibrous sheet that covers the foramen ovale during fetal development. An aneurysm can occur if the foramen ovale does not close properly. When an aneurysm occurs in the fossa ovale, an enlarged pouch is formed. This pouch can protrude into the right atrium or the left atrium. An aneurysm can occur even if the foramen ovale seals properly.
