as confirmed by agitated saline contrast echocardiography (also known as bubble study).\n* Clinically diagnosed with a PFO-associated ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA).\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* An alternative, clearly identified cause of ischemic stroke or TIA (other than PFO) is determined by the investigator.\n* Large territory cerebral infarction within 4 weeks prior to the planned procedure.\n* Atherosclerotic stenosis (\\>50%) of the carotid or vertebral arteries, as confirmed by CT angiography or vascular ultrasound per investigator assessment.\n* Presence of intracardiac thrombus or vegetation as confirmed by echocardiography.\n* Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \\< 35%.\n* Atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter.\n* Left ventricular aneurysm or severe regional wall motion abnormality.\n* Significant valvular stenosis or regurgitation, or history of valvular replacement or repair surgery.\n* Pulmonary hypertension or a PFO constituting a special conduit (e.g., right-to-left shunt due to elevated right heart pressures).\n* Other confirmed causes of right-to-left shunt, such as atrial septal defect (ASD) or pulmonary arteriovenous fistula.\n* Complex PFO anatomy (e.g., multi-tunnel PFO) or PFO associated with an ASD requiring different closure strategy.\n* Thrombus, mass, or vegetation identified at the intended implant site or along the potential delivery pathway.\n* Acute myocardial infarction or unstable angina within 3 months prior to the procedure.\n* Previous implantation of an inferior vena cava filter, PFO closure device, or ASD closure device.\n* Any other condition deemed by the investigator to make the patient unsuitable for PFO device implantation.\n* Concomitant cardiac anomalies requiring surgical correction.\n* Uncontrolled systemic or local infection, or sepsis.\n* Active infection requiring concurrent antibiotic therapy (Patients with transient conditions may be enrolled after completing antibiotic therapy and a subsequent 14-day washout period).\n* Contraindication to antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy (e.g., major bleeding within 3 months, known retinopathy, history of intracranial hemorrhage, or other significant intracranial pathology).\n* Known hypersensitivity or allergy to tantalum or nickel.\n* Pregnancy, lactation, or women of childbearing potential not using highly effective contraception.\n* Life expectancy less than 1 year due to malignancy or other comorbid disease.\n* Current participation in another investigational drug or device clinical study that
