LEFT ATRIAL APPENDAGE SEAL FOLLOWING PERCUTANEOUS LEFT ATRIAL APPENDAGE OCCLUSION
Percutaneous left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion is well established as an alternative to anticoagulation therapy for stroke prophylaxis among patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). Only the Watchman® device has FDA approval for this indication.

ABSTRACT Background Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) has become a valuable alternative to long‐term anticoagulation for stroke prevention in patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation (AF), especially in those at high bleeding risk. Hypoattenuated thickening (HAT) and device‐related thrombus (DRT) remain notable postprocedural concerns ...
