Transseptal Needle

Transseptal Needle

A transseptal needle is a specialized medical instrument used in cardiology procedures to access the left atrium of the heart through the interatrial septum. It is commonly used during transseptal puncture in catheter-based interventions such as mitral valve repair and atrial fibrillation ablation. The needle ensures safe and accurate entry into the left atrium under imaging guidance.
