What is it indicated for?

The AtriClip™ LAA Exclusion System is indicated for the occlusion of the heart’s left atrial appendage, under direct visualization, in conjunction with other open cardiac surgical procedures.

Direct visualization, in this context, requires that the surgeon is able to see the heart directly, without assistance from a camera, endoscope, etc., or any other viewing technology. This includes procedures performed by sternotomy (full or partial) as well as thoracotomy (single or multiple).

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
