Indications and Outcome in Patients Undergoing Left Atrial Appendage Closure—The Austrian LAAC Registry [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2020
Background: Complete real-world data on the indications and outcomes of left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) outside of clinical trials are rare. In this study, we stratified patients undergoing LAAC by indication groups. Methods: This analysis of the national multicentre Austrian LAAC Registry comprised all patients that underwent LAAC up until 2018 ...

LAAC: A Location-Aware Access Control Protocol

2006 3rd Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems - Workshops, 2006
With the proliferation of wireless communication technologies and mobile computing devices, research interest has grown for location-aware systems and services. We propose LAAC, a novel Location-Aware Access Control protocol based on a coarsely defined location area that is enclosed by overlapping areas of multiple access points.

Incidence, Predictors, and Clinical Impact of Bleeding Recurrence in Patients With Prior Gastrointestinal Bleeding Undergoing LAAC

PACE - Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2021
AbstractBackgroundGastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is associated with a high recurrence rate and a prior GIB episode is common in real‐world left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) recipients. The present study sought to evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with prior GIB undergoing LAAC, and to determine the factors associated ...

Mechanism and management of leaks arising after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC)

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2022
AbstractThis article reviews the latest available data in regard to the diagnosis, management, and intervention of both central and peri‐device leaks that arise after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC). The aim of this article is to have a better understanding of both addressing leaks arising after LAAC, and which interventions and closure methods ...

Left Atrial Appendage Closure (LAAC)

2017
Atrial fibrillation (AF) affects approximately 15 million patients worldwide and carries an increased risk of stroke. It is estimated that 90 % of stroke comes from embolism of left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus in non-valvular AF. The concept of mechanical occlusion of the LAA to reduce stroke risk has been refined over the years since it was first ...
