The aim of this multicenter, non-randomized observational post-approval is to compile real world outcome data on the use of an AMPLATZER LAA Occluder in subjects with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). The AMPLATZER LAA Occluders is a transcatheter, self-expanding nitinol device intended for use in preventing thrombus embolization from the LAA.
The AMPLATZER™ LAA Occluder is intended to prevent thrombus embolization from the left atrial appendage (LAA) in patients who have nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation (AF). It may be considered for use in patients who have a high risk of stroke and bleeding and are deemed by their physician to have an appropriate rationale to seek a non-pharmacologic alternative to long term anticoagulants.
