Left atrial appendage closure in end‐stage renal disease and hemodialysis: Data from a German multicenter registry

open access: yesCatheterization and cardiovascular interventions, 2023
Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has emerged as an alternative to oral anticoagulation (OAC) for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). OAC treatment has been proven feasible in mild‐to‐moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD).
