20 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a prospective, single center, non-randomized study with two parallel arms intended to study if 4D Intracardiac echocardiography (4D-ICE) (Nuvision, Nuvera TM) will provide better visualization of the anatomical landmarks from the larger imaging volume and provide optimal intra procedural guidance similar to Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) (GE 6VT-D ULTRASOUND TRANSDUCER) for Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC). The study will enroll approximately 52 subjects and will be followed through 12 months.
The GI-FLX Registry is intended to create a registry of patients with a history of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) and Gastrointestinal (GI) bleed who will receive Left Atrial Appendage Closure (LAAC) with WATCHMAN FLX device and compare to patients with AF and GI bleed who do not have LAAC. The GI-FLX Registry will be a multi-center, non-randomized registry. Approximately 250 prospective patients will be enrolled at all 4 sites. Historical cohort of 250 patients after propensity score matching with WATCHMAN-FLX arm will be included in the final analysis.
This is an early feasibility study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Laminar Left Atrial Appendage Closure System to treat patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation that cannot take, or a have a reason to seek an alternative, to anticoagulant medications.
The primary objective of this study is to determine if left atrial appendage closure with the WATCHMAN FLX Device is a reasonable alternative to oral anticoagulation following percutaneous catheter ablation for high risk patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
Although the clinical impact of left atrial appendage (LAA) leaks still requires confirmation, the open pouch with residual flow resulting from incomplete LAA closure may promote blood stagnation and thrombus formation, and increase the risk of thromboembolic events. The main purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous leak closure with detachable vascular coils.
This is a single arm, open label, single site study assessing the feasibility of post-procedural edoxaban therapy in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients after clinically indicated WATCHMAN left atrial appendage (LAA) closure.
This study will evaluate thrombogenicity in patients undergoing left atrial appendage closure using the WATCHMAN device. Parameters of thrombosis and platelet function, as well as other bio-markers, will be measure before, during, and after WATCHMAN implantation at several follow up visits.
The study cohort will consist of up to 50 patients who are candidates for Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) closure in whom oral anticoagulation is contraindicated. Subjects evaluated for left atrial appendage closure will be screened for inclusion and consented prior to their procedure. If the anatomy is favorable for placement of the Lariat® device, the procedure will be performed at one of the participating centers. If anatomy is not favorable, the patient will be excluded from the study and managed using best care practices by his or her physician.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and function of the Aegis Sierra Ligation System in accessing and closing off the left atrial appendage (LAA) using a minimally invasive epicardial access approach. A minimum of 30 participants will be included in this study, which is being performed at a maximum of 8 centers in Canada and the United States. (A maximum of 15 participants at 4 US centers will be enrolled) Participants will be considered for this treatment if their doctor(s) have determined they have documented non-valvular atrial fibrillation and are at increased risk for developing a stroke.
This study is a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized trial of a stand-alone procedure for left atrial appendage exclusion in patients with atrial fibrillation at risk for embolic events who are contraindicated for or intolerant of oral anticoagulation therapy. This study will enroll 100 participant, who will receive the LAA ligation study treatment. The objective of this registry is to assess the effectiveness of permanent exclusion of the LAA using the LARIAT Suture Delivery Device and Accessories in patients unable to be treated with standard anticoagulation therapy. The results of the study will be used to assess outcomes within the first year, post-treatment.
This single-center, prospective, randomized study will evaluate the safety and feasibility of Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE)-guided Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) when compared to the traditional Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) approach.
The aim of this multi-center study will be to assess the feasibility and safety of left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion with the WATCHMAN™ device using a standardized intra-procedural intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) protocol under moderate sedation for procedural guidance. By eliminating the need for general anesthesia, the hope is to show a reduction in procedural time, decrease use of supplemental invasive procedures (central venous line, invasive arterial pressure monitoring and transesophageal echocardiography) and quicker patient recovery time. This approach can decrease healthcare resource utilization and safely simplify left atrial appendage closure with the WATCHMAN device.
The purpose of this research is to monitor how well patients do after surgery for treatment of left atrial appendage (LAA).
Closure of peri-device leaks (PDL) after incomplete LAAC have shown early feasibility, however no comparison study of all the leak closure modalities exists. Therefore, this is an attempt to report the first 3-way observational comparison study to date, with results in 160 total patients in 3 arms including detachable embolization coils, vascular plugs/septal occluders and Radiofrequency ablation.
Single arm, prospective unblinded study on post Watchman LAA closure device implant anti-coagulation management at a primary center (Vanderbilt Medical Center) and up to 5 additional high volume LAA implant centers. This trial will be designed to evaluate the use of dabigatran for 90 days post implantation of an LAA closure device (Watchman LAA Closure Device, Boston Scientific Inc.) to prevent device related thrombus.
To provide additional information about the safety and efficacy of the WATCHMAN LAA Closure Technology
This was a prospective, randomized, multicenter study to provide additional information on the safety and efficacy of the WATCHMAN LAA Closure Technology. The purpose of the PREVAIL study was to confirm the efficacy endpoint as demonstrated in the PROTECT AF pivotal study and to further demonstrate that the WATCHMAN LAA Closure Technology is safe and effective in subjects with non-valvular atrial fibrillation who require anticoagulation therapy for potential thrombus formation.
The investigators thought to evaluate the safety and feasibility of peri-device leakage closure after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO, either surgical or interventional) with different devices.
The WAVECREST 2 trial is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, active controlled, clinical trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Coherex WaveCrest Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) Occlusion System.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of the Cardioblate Closure Device to occlude the LAA
