The OPTION-EMEA post-market study is intended to gather real world clinical data for patients undergoing AF ablation with the FARAPULSE™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System and subsequent left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) with a WATCHMAN FLX™ Pro or WATCHMAN FLX device during one interventional case.
The study will include patients that are clinically indicated for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation using the FARAPULSE PFA System and for left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) treatment using a WATCHMAN FLX Pro or WATCHMAN FLX device as part of the patient's standard of care determined by their doctor's medical judgement.
Clinically indicated for treatment with both the FARAPULSE™ PFA system and with WATCHMAN FLX™ Pro or WATCHMAN FLX™ for LAAC, per physician medical judgement and as per hospitals' standard of care.
