Robotic-assisted left atrial appendage occlusion

Multimedia Manual of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery
Atrial fibrillation poses significant stroke risks, particularly in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Left atrial appendage occlusion has emerged as a crucial strategy for stroke prevention, garnering a Class I recommendation. This paper presents a technical framework for performing robotic left atrial appendage occlusion as an isolated procedure or

Association of Transcatheter Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion with Acute Changes in Left Atrial Pressure: An Invasive Hemodynamic Study.

Heart Rhythm
BACKGROUND The hemodynamic effects of transcatheter left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) remain unclear. OBJECTIVE We sought to assess the effect of LAAO on invasive hemodynamics and their correlation with clinical outcomes.

Single antiplatelet therapy following Amplatzer left atrial appendage occlusion.

EuroIntervention
BACKGROUND The optimal antithrombotic therapy following left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) remains debated. Ideally, this therapy should effectively prevent device-related thrombosis (DRT) while minimising the associated bleeding risk.

Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion

2005
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. It has a prevalence of 0.4% in the general population, which increases with age (1). Two-thirds of those with AF are considered at high risk of stroke defined as a CHADS2 score of 2–6 with an adjusted stroke rate of 4.0–18% (2).

Transcatheter left atrial appendage occlusion

2019
The role of the surgeon in the cardiac catheterization laboratory has evolved considerably over the past 20 years. In the early days of percutaneous coronary intervention, a surgical theatre was kept on standby in case surgical rescue was required. With the proven success of percutaneous coronary intervention, the rate of coronary artery bypass surgery

Left atrial appendage occlusion: On the need of a numerical model to simulate the implant procedure

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering
Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) is a percutaneous procedure to prevent thromboembolism in patients affected by atrial fibrillation. Despite its demonstrated efficacy, the LAA morphological complexity hinders the procedure, resulting in ...

Thoracoscopic Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion with the AtriClip PRO2: An Experience of 144 Patients.

Heart, Lung and Circulation
AIM To report the clinical outcomes of thoracoscopic left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) with the AtriClip PRO2 device (Atricure Inc, Mason, OH, USA). Stroke risk reduction with LAAO in patients with atrial fibrillation is now well-established.

Early Nonprocedural Bleeding After Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion.

JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions
BACKGROUND Patients treated with left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) are at high bleeding risk. Intensive antithrombotic treatment is recommended after the procedure to prevent device-related thrombosis.
