Trans-Septal Puncture Procedures and Devices
... Measurement of left atrial (LA) pressure is important in the evaluation of heart disease. Various direct methods, such as transbronchial, supraclavicular (1), and transseptal (TS) puncture (2– 4), were developed in the 1950s to measure LA pressure. Despite acceptable feasibility and safety (1,2,5), ...
