Participant Flow

Treatment subjects were recruited from the routine clinical referral base of one or more surgeons at each investigational site.

Subjects were screened for enrollment and consented prior to being brought to the OR with the potential that they may not be eligible based on some criteria evaluated in OR (i.e. left atrial size assessed by TEE). 1 subject was found to have LA size that excluded them from the trial.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 Months Post Procedure

Population: The analysis population included subjects that were evaluable for the Primary Efficacy Endpoint. The completer population excluded 5 subjects. These were 2 post op deaths, 2 deaths beyond 3 months but less than 6 months and 1 subject that withdrew at the 30 day visit.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 30 days Post Procedure

Population: Safety was evaluated in all subjects enrolled and treated with the device.

Major Adverse Events consist of Death within 30 days or beyond 30 days if considered device related, Excessive Bleeding, Stroke, TIA or MI. A clinic visist was performed at 30 days to fully assess the patient for adverse events.
