Echocardiogram-guided heart procedure registry for atrial fibrillation
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study keeps a real-world record of people with atrial fibrillation who are planning a procedure to close off the heart’s left atrial appendage. Doctors use echocardiography (heart ultrasound) to guide the closure and track outcomes to improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old
- You are willing to sign a written consent form
- You have atrial fibrillation that comes and goes, lasts continuously, or is permanent
- You have atrial fibrillation that is not caused by a heart valve problem
- Your stroke-risk score (CHA2DS2-VASc) is 2 or higher
- Your heart anatomy is suitable for a specific approved closure device

This study keeps records of people who already had a procedure to close a part of the heart called the left atrial appendage in Austria. It helps doctors understand outcomes and safety for patients after the procedure.
This study compares two ways of closing a small pouch in the heart (the left atrial appendage) to help prevent strokes in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). One method is less invasive, and the study aims to see if it is as safe and effective as the standard approach.
This study tracks patients who have a minimally invasive procedure to close off a small pouch in the heart called the left atrial appendage. The procedure aims to reduce stroke risk, and this registry collects information about how patients do after the procedure.
This trial tests a procedure to close off a small pouch in the heart called the left atrial appendage, which is a common source of blood clots in people with atrial fibrillation. The goal is to lower your stroke risk without needing to take blood thinners long-term.
This study looks at how different imaging tests can help guide a procedure that closes off the left atrial appendage to reduce stroke risk. It may help doctors choose the safest approach during the procedure.
This study is a hospital registry that collects information from people who are having a device placed to close a part of the heart called the left atrial appendage. It helps doctors understand how this procedure works in real life, including different outcomes.
