Registry for combined leadless pacemaker and heart pouch closure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at the combined use of two heart procedures: placing a leadless pacemaker (a small device to control heart rhythm) and closing off the left atrial appendage (a small pouch in the heart) to reduce stroke risk. The goal is to see if doing both together is safe and works well for people who need both.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are older than 18 years.
- Your doctor has said you need a pacemaker for a slow or irregular heartbeat.
- You have atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat).
- You and your doctor have decided together that you should have a procedure to close off a small heart pouch (left atrial appendage) to lower stroke risk.
- You are not pregnant, and you are expected to live at least one more year, with no severe heart valve problems.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 study tests if adding a special energy treatment (pulsed field ablation) to a standard heart pouch closure is safe and works better for people with persistent atrial fibrillation who have few symptoms but a high risk of stroke.
This study tests a device and procedure to close off a small pouch in the heart (left atrial appendage) where blood clots can form in people with atrial fibrillation. The goal is to reduce the risk of stroke, possibly lowering the need for long-term blood thinners.
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.
This trial is testing two ways to guide a procedure that closes a small pouch in the heart to lower the risk of stroke in people with atrial fibrillation. The goal is to see if one method is as good or better than the other.
