Left atrial appendage occlusion.

Project description:Prevention of stroke represents a goal of primary importance in health systems due to its associated morbidity and mortality. As several patient groups with increased stroke rates have been identified, multiple approaches have been developed and implemented: oral anticoagulation (OAC) for patients with atrial fibrillation, surgical and percutaneous revascularisation in patients with carotid disease, device closure for patients with patent foramen ovale, and now, left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) for selected patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). The latter group of patients are the focus of this review which evaluates the pathophysiology, selection of patients, procedural performance, outcomes of treatment both during and post-procedure, adjunctive therapy, complications, and longer-term outcomes.

Three-dimensional intracardiac echocardiography for left atrial appendage sizing and percutaneous occlusion guidance.

Project description:AimsLeft atrial appendage (LAA) imaging is critical during percutaneous occlusion procedures. 3D-intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) features direct visualization of LAA from multiple cross-sectional planes at a time. We aimed at reporting procedural success of 3D-ICE-guided LAA occlusion and the correlation between pre-procedural transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and intraprocedural 3D-ICE for LAA sizing.Methods and resultsAmong 274 patients undergoing left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) with a Watchman FLX, periprocedural ICE guidance was achieved via a commercially available 2D-ICE catheter (220 patients) or a novel (NUVISION™) 3D-ICE one (54 patients). Primary endpoint was a composite of procedural success and LAA sealing at follow-up TEE. Secondary endpoint was a composite of periprocedural device recapture/resizing plus presence of leaks ≥ 3 mm at follow-up TEE. 3D-ICE measurements of maximum landing zone correlated highly with pre-procedural TEE reference values [Pearson's: 0.94; P < 0.001; bias: -0.06 (-2.39, 2.27)]. The agreement between 3D-ICE-based device selection and final device size was 96.3% vs. 79.1% with 2D-ICE (P = 0.005). The incidence of the primary endpoint was 98.1% with 3D-ICE and 97.3% with 2D-ICE (P = 0.99). 2D-ICE patients had a trend towards a higher incidence of periprocedural device recapture/redeployment (31.5% vs. 44.5%; P = 0.09). The secondary endpoint occurred in 31.5% of 3D-ICE patients vs. 45.9% of 2D-ICE ones (P = 0.065).ConclusionIntracardiac echocardiography-guided LAAO showed a very high success, with no major adverse events. A very high level of agreement for LAA sizing was found between pre-procedural TEE and periprocedural 3D-ICE. 3D-ICE performed significantly better than 2D-ICE for FLX size selection and may provide better guidance during device deployment.

Percutaneous Coiling for Late-Acquired Peri-Device Leak Following Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion.

Project description:A 77-year-old patient with previous left atrial appendage (LAA) closure suffered from transient ischemic attack 6 years after the initial procedure. Computed tomography (CT) revealed appendage patency related to a late-acquired semicircular peri-device leak. The leak was treated by percutaneous LAA coiling. Subsequent clinical evolution was uneventful. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Project description:Left atrial appendage occlusion device (LAAO) implantation among patients who have had coronary artery bypass grafting can be challenging. We report a case of scheduled LAAO device implantation that was aborted due to the anomalous course of a bypass graft that appeared to be adherent to the left atrial appendage.

Flow Dynamic Factors Correlated With Device-Related Thrombosis After Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion.

Project description:BackgroundDevice-related thrombosis (DRT) occurs in up to 4% of patients undergoing left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) and is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. However, its pathophysiology, predictors, and optimal management remain unclear.ObjectivesThis study aims to assess flow dynamic factors correlating to DRT.MethodsA multicenter registry of patients who underwent LAAO and had pre- and post-computed tomography imaging was used. Patient-specific 3-dimensional digital models of the left atrium were created, and finite element simulations were performed to implant an LAAO device into each model in a position that matched the clinical deployment. Computational fluid dynamic simulations were performed to quantify the following flow dynamic parameters: time averaged wall shear stress, oscillatory shear index, and endothelial cell activation potential.ResultsA total of 38 patients (19 with DRT and 19 without DRT) were included. Left atrium volumes and mitral valve areas were larger in the DRT cohort compared with controls. Patients with DRT had a significantly lower time averaged wall shear stress (1.76 ± 1.24 Pa vs 2.90 ± 2.70 Pa), a higher oscillatory shear index (0.19 ± 0.11 vs 0.17 ± 0.11), and a higher endothelial cell activation potential (0.23 ± 0.58 Pa-1 vs 0.17 ± 0.30 Pa-1) than the controls (P < 0.001 for all). Thrombus locations identified from in-vivo images correlated well with the flow dynamic parameters tested.ConclusionsFlow dynamic parameters may be able to predict the risk of DRT after LAAO. Further investigation with a larger patient cohort and long-term follow-up is needed to assess the role of computational fluid dynamics in the risk stratification of patients considered for LAAO.
