Clinical Impact of Preprocedural CT-Based 3D Computational Simulation of Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion with Amulet.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

Standard of care (SoC) device size selection with transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) and computed tomography (CT) in LAAO can be challenging due to a certain degree of variability at both patient and device levels. The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate the clinical impact of 3D computational modelling software in the decision-making of left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) with Amplatzer Amulet.

Methods and results

SoC preprocedural assessments as well as CT-based 3D computational simulations (FEops) were performed in 15 consecutive patients scheduled for LAAO with Amulet. Preprocedural device size selection and degree of confidence were determined after SoC and after FEops-based assessments and compared to the implanted device. FEops-based preprocedural assessment correctly selected the implanted device size in 11 out of 15 patients (73.3%), compared to 7 patients (46.7%) for SoC-based assessment. In 4 patients (26.7%), FEops induced a change in device size initially selected by SoC. In the 7 patients (46.7%) in which FEops confirmed the SoC device size selection, the degree of confidence of the size selection increased from 6.4 ± 1.4 for SoC to 8.1 ± 0.7 for FEops. One patient (6.7%) could not be implanted for anatomical reason, as correctly identified by FEops.

Conclusions

Preprocedural 3D computational simulation by FEops impacts Amulet size selection in LAAO compared to TOE and CT-based SoC assessment. Operators could consider FEops computational simulation in their preprocedural device size selection.

Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion with Amplatzer Cardiac Plug and Amplatzer Amulet: a Clinical Trials Update.

Project description:It has been over a decade since dedicated Amplatzer devices have been used for left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) in patients with atrial fibrillation. The first was the Amplatzer Cardiac Plug (ACP) that is now replaced in most countries by the Amplatzer Amulet device. Most of the clinical data for ACP come from the ACP multicenter registry that included 1047 patients from 22 sites, whereas the largest to date report on the Amplatzer Amulet is a recently published prospective multicenter study in 1088 patients from 64 sites. Two important randomized clinical trials the Amulet IDE trial and the STROKECLOSE trial are currently enrolling patients and expected to provide more data on LAAO with Amplatzer Amulet in the near future.

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.

Outcomes of the roll-in cohort of the Amulet IDE trial of left atrial appendage occlusion.

Project description:BackgroundLeft atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion is an alternative therapy to oral anticoagulants to reduce stroke risk in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). The Amulet IDE trial compared the Amplatzer™ Amulet™ occluder (Abbott) with the Watchman™ 2.5 device (Boston Scientific) for LAA occlusion in patients with NVAF.ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to describe outcomes of the Amulet IDE trial roll-in cohort.MethodsAt US sites up to 3 patients per implanter could be implanted with the Amulet occluder in the roll-in phase. The primary Endpoints in the Amulet IDE trial included safety (composite of procedure-related complications, all-cause death, or major bleeding at 12 months), effectiveness (composite of ischemic stroke or systemic embolism at 18 months), and rate of LAA occlusion at 45 days.ResultsA total of 201 roll-in patients were enrolled. Device success occurred in 99% of patients, and device closure (residual jet ≤5 mm) was observed in 98.9% of patients at 45 days. The safety endpoint rate was numerically higher (worse) in the roll-in cohort compared to the randomized Amulet occluder cohort (18.4% vs 14.5%). Six patients (3.1%) experienced an ischemic stroke and 0 patients with a systemic embolism within 18 months, which was similar to the primary effectiveness endpoint rate in the randomized Amulet occluder cohort (2.8%).ConclusionsDespite lack of experience of the operators with the Amulet occluder in the roll-in phase, device implant success was high, a high rate of device closure was achieved, and low stroke rates were observed in patients with NVAF.

Gender difference in left atrial appendage occlusion outcomes: Results from the Amplatzer™ Amulet™ Observational Study.

Project description:BackgroundPercutaneous LAAO represents an alternative for stroke prevention in patients not tolerating anticoagulation. While women are at higher risk of complications during percutaneous coronary or valvular interventions, the impact of gender on LAAO outcomes is not well characterized. The current study assessed potential gender-related differences in procedural and long-term outcomes following left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO).Methods1088 AF patients were enrolled in the prospective, multicenter, Amplatzer™ Amulet™ Observational Study and followed for 2 years with scheduled adverse event assessments. The prespecified primary outcome was ischemic stroke, systemic embolism or cardiovascular (CV) death at 2 years. We also compared the rate of procedural success, device-related thrombus (DRT) and major bleeding between genders.Results702 men and 386 women underwent LAAO. Implant successwas high, and similar between men and women (98.9 vs 99.5%, p = 0.58). Similarly, no difference was observed in the primary outcome (12.0 vs 12.5%, p = 0.82). Compared to the CHA2DS2-VASc predicted rate, we observed a numerically greater absolute risk reduction of ischemic stroke in women (from 7.6 to 2.1%/year) than men (from 6.2 to 2.2%/year). DRT through 2 years was similar between groups (1.6%, p = 0.96). We found no significant gender difference in terms of periprocedural or long-term (7.1 vs 7.6%/year) major bleeding.ConclusionsIn this large group of patients undergoing LAAO using the Amplatzer™ Amulet™ device we found no significant gender difference in terms of procedural or long-term clinical outcomes. Similarly to oral anticoagulation, device-based LAA occlusion renders AF-related stroke risk similar in women and men.Clinical trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT02447081.https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02447081.

Left atrial appendage occlusion with the Amplatzer™ Amulet™ device: full results of the prospective global observational study.

Project description:AimsTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) with the Amplatzer™ Amulet™ occluder.Methods and resultsPatients with atrial fibrillation eligible for LAAO were recruited to a prospective global study. Implant procedures were undertaken with echocardiographic guidance. Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) was undertaken 1-3 months post-LAAO. Implant and follow-up TOEs were evaluated by a CoreLab. The primary endpoint was a composite of ischaemic stroke and cardiovascular death at 2 years. Serious adverse events were adjudicated by an independent clinical events committee. A total of 1088 patients were enrolled, aged 75.2 ± 8.5 years; 64.5% were male. CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED scores were 4.2 ± 1.6 and 3.3 ± 1.1, respectively. A total of 71.7% had prior major bleeding, and 82.8% had contraindications to oral anticoagulants. Implant success was 99.1%. Major adverse events (≤7 days post-procedure) occurred in 4.0%, including death (0.3%), stroke (0.4%), major vascular (1.3%), and device embolization (0.2%). A total of 80.2% of patients were discharged on antiplatelet therapy alone. Peridevice flow was <3 mm in 98.4% at follow-up TOE. Device-related thrombus (DRT) was seen in 1.6% of cases. Cardiovascular death or ischaemic stroke occurred in 8.7% of patients at 2 years. The ischaemic stroke rate was 2.2%/year-a 67% reduction compared to the CHA2DS2-VASc predicted rate. Major bleeding (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium type ≥ 3) occurred at rates of 10.1%/year (year 1) and 4.0%/year (year 2).ConclusionFollowing LAAO with the Amplatzer Amulet device, the ischaemic stroke rate was reduced by 67% compared to the predicted risk. Closure was complete in 98.4% of cases and DRT seen in only 1.6%.

Length of stay following percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion: Data from the prospective, multicenter Amplatzer Amulet Occluder Observational Study.

Project description:AimsTo evaluate factors influencing the length of stay in patients undergoing percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO).Methods and resultsPatient characteristics, procedural data and the occurrence of serious adverse events were analyzed from the AmplatzerTM AmuletTM Occluder Observational Study. Patients were divided into three groups: same day (S, 0day, n = 60, 5.6%) early (E, 1day, n = 526, 48.9%), regular (R, 2-3days, n = 338, 31.4%) and late (L, ≥4days, n = 152, 14.1%) discharge and followed up for 60 days. Procedure and device related SAE during the in-hospital stay (S: 0.0% vs. E: 1.0% vs. R: 2.1% vs. L: 23%, p<0.0001) were a major trigger for a prolonged in-hospital stay. Of the 37 subjects in the late discharge group with an SAE prior to discharge, cardiac or bleeding complications were the most common underlying conditions, occurring in 26 subjects. Multinomial logistic analysis only identified HAS-BLED score as an independent influencing factor (p = 0.04) for a late discharge. After 60 days, mortality tended to be greatest in the late discharge group (S: 0.0% vs. E: 1.0% vs. R: 1.2% vs. L: 3.3%, p = 0.1066).ConclusionOver half of the subjects receiving an Amplatzer Amulet occluder were discharged within 1 day of the implant procedure. Serious adverse events were a major trigger for a late discharge after LAAO. Increased HAS-BLED score was associated with a prolonged in-hospital stay.

Advances in Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion Strategies.

Project description:Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia worldwide and associated with an elevated risk of thromboembolic stroke and systemic embolization. The evidence suggests that ~90% of thrombi in patients with non-valvular AF are localized to the left atrial appendage (LAA). Therefore, it seems reasonable to consider LAA exclusion in selected patients with AF for stroke prevention. LAA exclusion can be achieved through a variety of surgical and percutaneous techniques. Surgical methods include LAA amputation, ligation, clipping and stapling. Whereas percutaneous strategies consist of endocardial closure using an LAA occlusion device and epicardial LAA ligation using a snare device. Even though several trials and registries of LAA exclusion have yielded promising outcomes, at this time evidence for long term safety and efficacy seems insufficient to recommend this approach to all patients with non-valvular AF. Future prospective randomized trials are needed to assess the precise role for these therapeutic options. Furthermore, there is a paucity of data on the comparison of these strategies to the novel oral anticoagulants which also deserves further attention. This review will carefully examine the current LAA exclusion techniques and the available data.
