Medical therapy
There are no widely-used guidelines for medical therapy usage in patients with atrial septal defects. Medical therapy can be used, however, to manage conditions associated with atrial septal defects.
Medical therapy for stroke
Researchers have investigated the justification for aspirin therapy in patients with atrial septal defects, such as Patent foramen ovale (PFO), who have had stroke or a transient ischemic attack.[1]
Aspirin therapy was observed to have an effective role in reducing the incidence of recurrent stroke after four years.[1] Another pharmacologic intervention study also indicated a supportive stance on utilizing pharmacologic therapies to reduce the risk of stroke. This study observed that aspirin therapy and warfarin therapy was effective [2] The AHA guidelines support the utilization of sustained warfarin therapy in high-risk atrial septal defect patients. [3] American College of Chest Physicians recommends utilizing antiplatelet therapy for some patent foramen ovale patients.[4] Anticoagulation therapy for patent foramen ovale patients, specifically ones with pulmonary embolus or deep vein thrombosis.
