Afib is on the rise with significant effects on morbidity and mortality. The stagnation of blood in the left atrium and left atrial appendage (LAA) places patients at risk for thromboembolism and stroke. By ligating or closing off the LAA, the risk can be significantly reduced. This intervention offers a valuable alternative to medication, improving safety and quality of life for patients through a minimally invasive, durable stroke prevention strategy. Learn more about the procedure and steps for referring your eligible patient.
