About this trial
The novel Amplatzer steerable delivery sheath (Abbott Vascular) is found to be safe and effective in performing LAAO procedure. However, the procedural outcomes have not been compared with the traditional non-steerable fixed curve sheath. In this study investigators aim to compare the outcome of patients undergoing left atrial appendage occlusion with the dual mechanism closure Amulet device using non-steerable fixed curve sheath versus a novel steerable sheath.
