Participant Flow

WATCHMAN FLX HK study completed FPI on 19 Jun 2020, and completed LPI on 8 Oct 2021, took almost 16 months to complete recruiting 50 patients. There are 50 subjects enrolled in study.

Subjects who meet the eligibility criteria, have signed and dated the Informed Consent Form and actually undergo a WATCHMAN FLX implant procedure are considered enrolled in the study. Baseline data from subjects who meet the eligibility criteria, have signed and dated the Informed Consent Form but do not eventually undergo a WATCHMAN FLX implant procedure are collected for epidemiological reasons, to better characterize the population.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: First Follow-up (30-100 days)

Population: T

The occurrence of one of the following events between the time of implant and within 7 days following the procedure or by hospital discharge, whichever is later: all-cause death, ischemic stroke, systemic embolism, or device- or procedure-related events requiring open cardiac surgery or major endovascular intervention such as pseudoaneurysm repair, AV fistula repair, or other major endovascular repair. Percutaneous catheter drainage of pericardial effusions, snaring of an embolized device, thrombin injection to treat femoral pseudoaneurysm and nonsurgical treatments of access site complications are excluded from this endpoint.
