LifeTech Scores CE Mark for LAA Closure System

June 16, 2016

LifeTech Scientific has secured CE Mark approval for its LAmbre left atrial appendage closure system, the first Chinese LAA closure system to gain CE Mark approval.

A recent study shows the device outshined anticoagulation on preventing stroke, bleeding complications and mortality, the company said.

The device is intended to close the LAA percutaneously via a small 8-10 Fr sheath and features a distal umbrella and a proximal cover disc joined by a short sleeve. — Anisa Jibrell
