Steerable Delivery Sheath for Optimized LAA Closure: First Experience and Procedural Outcomes
ABSTRACT Background The new Amplatzer Steerable Delivery Sheath is a delivery system designed to improve ease‐of‐use and procedural results of left atrial appendage closure (LAAC). We aimed to compare procedural results after switching our LAAC program at a tertiary care center with the Amulet device to the Steerable Delivery Sheath, with a control ...
