Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) sheath delivery 2x faster*
In a retrospective comparison, the use of the exchangeless VersaCross™ Access Solution reduced time to LAAC sheath delivery compared to a mechanical needle.
Key takeaways
Achieved transseptal access and WATCHMAN™ or Amulet™ sheath delivery in under 7 mins
Enabled faster left atrial access with 3-in-1 solution by combining a starter wire, radiofrequency (RF) transseptal device and exchange rail
Controlled RF puncture with a single wire
Faster time to LAAC sheath delivery*
In this retrospective comparison, the use of VersaCross Access Solution for transseptal access resulted in a faster LAAC sheath delivery, from femoral to left atrium (LA) access of 6.7 minutes compared to 13.4 minutes using a conventional mechanical needle.
Transseptal reimagined.
