Atrial Fibrillation Trial, Recruiting
Who may be able to join
AI generated eligibility summary. Written by an AI model from the official source data and checked on a sample basis. It can contain mistakes, so confirm anything important against the original source. How we use AI
Who might be able to join this trial:
- People who meet the standard medical guidelines for receiving a commercially available Watchman device (a small implant used to reduce stroke risk in people with a certain type of irregular heartbeat)
- People who are not currently enrolled in another active clinical trial
Who may not be able to join:
- People who cannot have a type of heart imaging procedure called a TEE (a camera passed down the throat to look at the heart) during the procedure, and who would need a different imaging method called ICE instead
- People who are having an additional heart procedure called an ablation at the same time as the Watchman implant
- People who have previously had an incomplete surgical or catheter-based procedure to close off a part of the heart called the left atrial appendage
- People whose heart anatomy is expected to make it difficult to pass the necessary equipment through the wall between the upper chambers of the heart — for example, because they have an existing closure device for a hole in the heart (such as a PFO or ASD repair device) already in place
