A member asked:
It is possible to close the 13.6mm asd in my 10yo daughter with pulmonary hypertension lung pressure 140?

Management decisions: It really depends on a number of parameters and conditions. The number that you wrote for pulmonary pressure is very high, and a cardiac catheterization will include a test of therapies to try to reduce the pressure. I would suggest that your daughter discuss the options with a cardio thoracic surgeon and pediatric cardiologist.
