4-year outcomes after left atrial appendage closure versus Nonwarfarin oral anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation
24 Jan 2022
Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is a promising interventional treatment option for preventing cardioembolic events in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) patients who can not tolerate long-term oral anticoagulation.
