What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The rate of occurrence for any reported adverse event experienced by subjects enrolled.

    Measured: Through 2 years

  2. Closure

    Defined as absence of flow or flow of ≤3mm jet into the LAA at procedure and at six (6) months as assessed by Transoesophageal Echocardiography (TOE).

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Technical success

    Defined as delivery and release of the ACP device, including recapture and/or replacement, as necessary. This success will be calculated among subjects in whom the device enters the body

    Measured: At implant
