Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Primary Effectiveness Endpoint

    The occurrence of non-effective LAA closure defined as any peri-device flow \> 5mm demonstrated by TEE/CT/MRI at First Follow-up.

    First Follow-up (30 ~ 100 days);

  • Primary Safety Endpoint

    The occurrence of one of the following events between the time of implant and within 7 days following the procedure or by hospital discharge, whichever is later: all-cause death, ischemic stroke, systemic embolism, or device- or procedure-related events requiring open cardiac surgery or major endovascular intervention such as pseudoaneurysm repair, AV fistula repair, or other major endovascular repair. Percutaneous catheter drainage of pericardial effusions, snaring of an embolized device, thrombin injection to treat femoral pseudoaneurysm and nonsurgical treatments of access site complications are excluded from this endpoint.

    First Follow-up (30-100 days)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Secondary Endpoint

    12-Month Follow-up (365 ± 30 days)

Subjects with non-valvular atrial fibrillation to reduce the risk of stroke

You may qualify if:

  • Patients who are eligible for a WATCHMAN FLX device according to current international and local guidelines (and future revisions) and per physician discretion;
  • Patients who are willing and capable of providing informed consent, participating in all testing associated with this clinical investigation at an approved clinical investigational center;
  • Patients whose age is 18 years or above, or of legal age to give informed consent specific to state and national law.
