LAA Closure

LAA Closure

A one-time Solution for Reducing the Risk of Stroke

The WATCHMAN LAA Closure devices offer a proven safe and effective option for reducing the risk of stroke in non-valvular AF patients.

  • WATCHMAN FLX is the next generation LAA closure device and is built on the proven clinical platform of WATCHMAN.
  • Closing the left atrial appendage reduces the risk of stroke as well as the long-term risk of bleeding which is associated with OAC in patients with non-valvular AF.
  • Long-term data from PROTECT-AF and PREVAIL demonstrated that WATCHMAN offered statistically significant reductions in disabling and fatal stroke, non-procedure-related major bleeding and mortality compared to warfarin after 5 years of follow-up.1
  • The PINNACLE FLX US IDE Clinical Trial showed WATCHMAN FLX safety and efficacy, meeting the primary safety endpoint with an 0.5% procedure-related event-rate and a primary endpoint of 100% effective closure rate at 12 months.2


WATCHMAN is the most studied LAA Closure device worldwide and is the only with proven safety, efficacy, and patient benefits from both randomised trials and multicentre registries
