Indications for Use
The AtriClip LAA Exclusion System is indicated for the occlusion of the left atrial appendage, under direct visualization, in conjunction with other open cardiac surgical procedures.
Device Story
AtriClip LAA Exclusion System is a sterile, single-use, implantable device designed for permanent occlusion of the left atrial appendage (LAA). The system comprises a self-closing clip preloaded on a disposable applier and a selection guide. The clip features a frame assembly of two springs connecting opposing tubes covered with pressure pads and a knit fabric. During open cardiac surgery, a physician uses the applier to position the clip over the LAA; pulling a thumb lever opens the clip, while releasing it allows the clip to close, applying uniform pressure to ensure secure occlusion. The device is used in an OR setting by cardiac surgeons. By providing consistent, reproducible LAA closure, the device aims to reduce the risk of thromboembolic events associated with the LAA. Clinical performance is verified intra-operatively and via follow-up imaging.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical study of 70 subjects evaluated safety and efficacy. Primary safety endpoint event rate was 0%. Efficacy demonstrated via LAA exclusion rates: 95.1% composite (intra-operative and 3-month) and 98% at 3-month follow-up. No events linked to device or procedure per independent physician adjudication. Non-clinical testing included acute and chronic animal models (7 to 90 days) confirming complete appendage exclusion with no adverse events.
Technological Characteristics
Implantable clip with frame assembly (two springs, opposing tubes, pressure pads, knit fabric). Available in 35mm, 40mm, 45mm, and 50mm lengths. Biocompatibility tested per ISO 10993-1. Mechanical actuation via thumb lever on disposable applier. Sterile, single-use.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing open cardiac surgical procedures requiring occlusion of the left atrial appendage (LAA) under direct visualization.

#### Intended Use
The AtriClip LAA Exclusion System is indicated for the left atrial appendage, under direct visualization, in conjunction with other open cardiac surgical procedures.
#### Predicate Devices
The predicate devices for the AtriClip LAA Exclusion System are the Weck Hem-O-Lok® Ligating Clip and Clip Applier (K030311), Medtronic VNUS U-Clip and Applier (K031623), Tyco AutoSuture TA and GIA Staplers (K032696), Power Medical SurgASSIST® Straight Linear 4 Row No Knife DLUs with Reloads (K040398), Demetech Braided Nonabsorbable Polyester Suture and needle driver (K023030) and Gore SEAMGUARD® Bioabsorbable Staple Line Reinforcement Material (K043056).
#### Device Description
The AtriClip LAA Exclusion System consists of a single use, sterile, self-closing, implantable Clip preloaded on a Single Use Clip Applier, and a Selection Guide to aid in appropriate Clip size selection. The frame assembly of the implantable Clip consists of two springs connecting two opposing tubes which are covered with pressure pads. This assembly is covered with a knit fabric. When closed, the Clip applies uniform pressure over the length of the Clip to ensure consistent, reproducible, and secure occlusion of the left atrial appendage (LAA).
{1}------------------------------------------------
The Clip is available in the following lengths to accommodate different sizes of LAA: 35 mm, 40 mm, 45 mm, and 50 mm.
The Clip Applier is a disposable device with a handle, shaft, and an end effector which contains the Clip. Both sides of the Clip are free to move within the end effector when activated. Pulling the thumb lever proximally opens the Clip. The bias of the Clip allows both the clip and the lever to return to the closed position when the lever is released.
#### Materials
All materials in the AtriClip LAA Exclusion System are suitable for their intended use and have been used in previously cleared products. Testing was conducted in accordance with ISO 10993-1 to ensure appropriate biocompatibility of all materials.
#### Predicate Comparison
The technological characteristics of the device are the same as the predicate devices. The same materials are used in the AtriClip and predicate devices. The sizes of the devices are equivalent and are provided in similar ranges. The method of LAA closure, permanent approximation of the sides of the LAA, is the same for the AtriClip and the predicates. All of the devices may be repositioned on the LAA prior to deployment and once deployed exert similar pressures on the tissue.
#### Non-Clinical Testing
The AtriClip was tested on in both acute and chronic models ranging from 7 days to 90 days Testing presented in the 510(k) document demonstrated complete appendage duration. exclusion both acutely and long-term in all animals with no adverse events attributed to the Clip device. Post-implant verification of efficacy confirmed there was no communication between the LAA and left atrium in all animals.
#### Clinical Testing
The AtriClip has been evaluated for safety and efficacy in a controlled clinical study of seventy subjects. The results of the study demonstrate the excellent performance of the product in its ability to exclude the LAA in a safe and efficient manner. Efficacy has been demonstrated at a very high rate intra-procedurally and this rate has been shown to improve as further healing was achieved. The observed exclusion rate of 95.1% composite (both intra-operative and 3 month) and 98% at 3 month follow-up support that this procedure can achieve excellent efficacy results.
The safety of the device and procedure has been well established through a careful scrutiny of all events reported in the study. Independent physician adjudication has demonstrated that there were no events that were in any way linked to the device or the procedure. The primary safety endpoint event rate in this trial is 0%. These results confirm the safety of the product and the procedure. The results further support the technical comparability of the product to other currently marketed options for LAA exclusion and therefore provides the clinical support to demonstrate a substantial equivalence of the AtriClip to the identified predicate devices.

#### Summary of Substantial Equivalence
As demonstrated by the predicate comparison of technological characteristics, data provided in the non-clinical studies and clinical testing, the AtriClip LAA Exclusion System is equivalent to the predicate products. The data presented in K093679 demonstrate that the device is as safe, as effective and performs as well as or better than the predicate device.
