A History of Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion with the PLAATO Device
Abstract
Percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion was introduced as an alternative method for prevention of thromboembolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation after extensive animal work in 2001. The first device was named Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Transcatheter Occlusion (PLAATO) and patented by the company Appriva. The device was invented by Michael Lesh, MD.
Keywords: Atrial fibrillation; Left atrial appendage; Left atrial appendage occlusion; PLAATO.
