Abstract

See full text

Methods and devices that treat the left atrial appendage by bringing the distal wall of the appendage to a position where the tissue of the wall blocks the ostium, thereby preventing blood from flowing into the appendage. The methods and devices are adapted to create a separation between the distal wall of the appendage and the adjacent pericardium such that the risk of rupturing the pericardium are minimized.
