As the surface area of the fossa ovalis membrane is larger than that of the foramen ovale, shortly after birth, the left atrial pressure rises and the flap of the fossa ovalis membrane is lightly pushed against the septum secundum and closes the foramen ovale functionally. The reservoir was placed at the lowest portion of the lung to maintain a left atrial pressure of zero. The company currently has a small implantable sensor device in clinical trials both in the United States and internationally that measures left atrial pressure and body temperature to help physicians detect and manage symptoms associated with progressive heart failure. |
