Amplatzer occluder / Amplatzer occlusion device Explanation: The term "Schirm" would appear to refer to the shape of the device. Schirm can also be translated as shield (cf. Reuter/Reuter, WB Medizin), and again, a shield has a similar shape. For a relatively generic term, I'd use Amplatzer occluder or Amplatzer occlusion device.

Protective cover of the occlusion device Explanation: "Schirm" always makes reference to a protective instrument, also in the sense of "screening" or "warding off". "abschirmen"=protect from, "beschirmen"= (figuratively)holding one's hand over |

Protective cover of the occlusion device Explanation: "Schirm" always makes reference to a protective instrument, also in the sense of "screening" or "warding off". Strictly speaking, should it not be anti-occlusion device? In this case it could be simply a "stent", which opens like an umbrella, the meaning of which is the German "Schirm". "abschirmen"=protect from, "beschirmen"= (figuratively)holding one's hand over |
