Intended Use
The AtriClip LAA Exclusion System is indicated for the occlusion of the heart's left atrial appendage, performed under direct visualization and in conjunction with other cardiac surgical procedures. Direct visualization, in this context, requires that the surgeon is able to see the heart directly, with or without assistance from a camera, endoscope, etc., or other appropriate viewing technologies.
Device Story
AtriClip LAA Exclusion System consists of sterile, single-use, self-closing implantable clip preloaded on disposable clip applier; used by cardiac surgeons during open cardiac procedures. Device provides uniform pressure across LAA to ensure secure occlusion; clip remains as permanent implant. Applier features handle, shaft, suture anchors, and articulation controls for deployment. Modifications to PRO2 applier address spring return force consistency and manufacturability. Surgeon uses direct visualization (with or without endoscopic assistance) to position and deploy clip. Device benefits patient by providing consistent, reproducible LAA occlusion.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data presented. Performance verified through mechanical and reliability testing.
Technological Characteristics
Implantable clip and manual applier system. Clip available in 35, 40, 45, and 50 mm lengths. Materials include medical-grade metals and plastics. Mechanical actuation via handle-controlled deployment loop. Sterile, single-use device.
Indications for Use
Indicated for occlusion of the left atrial appendage in patients undergoing cardiac surgical procedures requiring direct visualization.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

### IV. Device Description
The AtriClip PRO2 LAA Exclusion System consists of a single use, sterile, self-closing, implantable Clip preloaded on a Single Use Clip Applier along with a selection guide. 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). The clip is then deployed and is left as a permanent implant. 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, suture anchors, articulation controls, and deployment loop which contains the Clip. This Special 510(k) contains modifications to the AtriClip LAA Exclusion System (PRO2) which are intended to 1.) mitigate inconsistencies of spring return force post deployment of the clip, and 2.) aid in manufacturability of the device.
### V. Indications For Use
The AtriClip LAA Exclusion System is indicated for the heart's left atrial appendage, performed under direct visualization and in conjunction with other cardiac surgical procedures.
Direct visualization, in this context, requires that the surgeon is able to see the heart directly, with or without assistance from a camera, endoscope, etc., or other appropriate viewing technologies.
### VI. Comparison Of Technological Characteristics With The Predicate Device
Minor dimensional modifications were made to internal components of the Clip Applier and a minor internal component was replaced with an equivalent component in the handle of the Clip Applier.
- The devices have the same intended use, and;
- No changes were made in operating principle, or specifications of performance, and;
- . Both the previously cleared PRO2 Appliers and PRO2 with proposed modifications use the Gillinov-Cosgrove Clip, and;
- . Both the previously cleared proposed modifications of the PRO2 are made of similar patient contacting materials (medical grade metals and plastics) with long and safe histories of use.
- The results of the verification and validation testing:
- o Demonstrated equivalency in performance
- Did not raise any new issues of safety o
The modifications to the proposed AtriClip LAA Exclusion System are intended to 1.) mitigate inconsistencies of spring return force post deployment of the clip, and 2.) aid in manufacturability of the device.
### VII. Performance Data
## Non-clinical Bench Testing
- Mechanical Testing ●
- Reliability Testing
### VIII. Conclusions
The modified AtriClip LAA Exclusion System (PRO2) is equivalent to the previously cleared AtriClip LAA Exclusion System (PRO2) as there is no change to intended use, operating principals, or function of the device.
