First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a device called CLAAS that closes a small pouch in the heart (left atrial appendage) to prevent strokes in people with atrial fibrillation. About 300 adults at high risk of stroke will get the device under conscious sedation (awake but relaxed). The goal is to see if the device is safe and works well, potentially allowing patients to stop long-term blood thinners.
