Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will evaluate the next generation WATCHMAN Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) Closure Device as implanted in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) with a CHADS2 stroke risk stratification score of 1 or greater. This is a prospective, non-randomized study to evaluate the initial use of the next generation WATCHMAN Device.
