Study Objective: Collect real-world WATCHMAN LAAO experience outside of selected populations in prior RCT Study Design: Prospective, single-arm, multi-center registry of the Watchman LAA Closure Technology Primary Endpoint: Primary analysis includes procedural success and safety, incidence of stroke, bleeding, and death after 2 yr of FU Investigator and Medical Safety Group for adjudication Patient Population: >1000 patients Number of Sites: 47 throughout Europe, Russia and Middle East Enrollment: Started October 2013 - Completed May 2015 Follow-up: Standard practice at participating centers

  • Normally 1-3 months post-procedure
  • Annually thereafter for a total of 2 years

Pts with completed 2 yrs FU: N = 784/1005 (78%) Pts with CT/TEE: N = 835/1005 (83%) Total #CT/TEEs: N = 1145 (avg 1.4/pt)

Deceased: N = 161 Withdrawn: N = 18 Lost to FU: N = 42 End of study < 1 year (N = 221)

Consistent low stroke rate with WATCHMAN

slide-16
SLIDE 16
  • WATCHMAN LAAC was studied in an all-comers prospective registry with >70%
  • f pts contra-indicated to oral anticoagulation
  • Implant and LAA sealing success exceeding that of prior RCT and registries, with

lower procedural adverse event rates1 During the complete 2-year follow-up:

  • Most pts were on (D)APT (77%) or no anticoagulation (14%)
  • Device-thrombus was low (4.1%) and unrelated to stroke or anticoagulation type
  • Ischemic stroke rate was 1.3 per 100 pt-yrs (83% RR reduction)
  • Post-procedural major bleeding was 2.7 per 100 pt-yrs (46% RR reduction)
  • High risk pts with prior ischemic/hemorrhagic stroke had the same benefit of

stroke/TIA/SE prevention and the same low bleeding rates
