Abstract

See full text

An opening other than the ostium of a left atrial appendage (LAA) is provided to allow blood flow between the LAA and another portion of the body. The opening has a conduit that helps to increase blood flow through an LAA by adding at least one other flow path to the ostium, thereby reducing the risk of stasis and the formation of thrombi.
