HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is ASD then such risk of escaping clot is just likely and great care need to be taken to prevent it because this could be possible for next time too, if the clinical symptoms are not sever then you can delay operation some time defect can be closed on its own, you need to continue the medicine (Clopilet), hope this information helps, take care.
