SCHLAGANFALL-RISIKOFAKTOREN
Vorhofflimmern (AF) ist mit einem fünffach erhöhten Risiko für einen ischämischen Schlaganfall verbunden.1 Der Verschluss des linken Vorhofohrs (Left Atrial Appendage, LAA) reduziert das Schlaganfallrisiko bei Patienten mit nicht-valvulärem Vorhofflimmern (NVAF), die eine Alternative zu oralen Antikoagulantien suchen.2,3
