NCT07278869
Brief Summary:
This early feasibility study is intended to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the Append System for eliminating the left atrial appendage (LAA) through a transcatheter procedure that invaginates and ligates the LAA tissue.
Detailed Description:
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the Append System in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation who are considered appropriate candidates for LAA closure to reduce the risk of thromboembolism originating from the LAA.
The Append System is designed to eliminate the LAA without the use of a permanent metallic implant. The procedure is performed via a transfemoral, transseptal, transcatheter approach. During the procedure, the LAA is invaginated into the left atrium (LA), and the inverted tissue is ligated using a standard surgical suture, resulting in elimination of the LAA cavity.
Patients will be followed for up to 5 years after the procedure to assess safety, device performance, and long-term outcomes.
