Brief summary
This clinical study is a prospective, multi-center, non-interventional study designed to investigate the safety and effectiveness of percutaneous LAA appendage closure by using LAmbre™ Left Atrial Appendage Occluder System. 579 patients with valvular AF complicated with previous AF-related embolic events (including ischemic stroke, TIA and systemic embolism) were enrolled at about 20 study sites nationwide. The baseline data, operation process and relevant follow-up information of subjects were recorded at 7 months after operation or before discharge and at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after operation.
Detailed description
Study Population Patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and previous AF-related embolic events Purpose To assess the feasibility and safety of percutaneous LAA closure as secondary prevention for patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and previous atrial fibrillation (AF) related embolic events (including ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), and systemic embolism).
Interventions
After the surgey, the tests data will be collected during 8 visits when the subjects go back to the hospital.
