Brief Summary:
Participants enrolled in this study will have been diagnosed with patent foramen ovale (PFO) and have been scheduled to have a cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) such as a pacemaker, implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD), or cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) device implanted. A PFO is a condition when there is a hole in the septum (the wall separating the right and left sides) of the heart.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether closing the PFO with the GORE® Cardioform Septal Occluder in people with an endocardial device leads reduces the risk of recurrent stroke or imaging-confirmed transient ischemic attack (TIA) compared to not closing the PFO.
