In this issue of Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, guest editor Dr. Matthew J. Daniels brings his considerable expertise to the topic of Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion. Top experts in the field discuss topics such as pre-cath laboratory planning for left atrial appendage occlusion: optional or essential; the case for intracardiac echo to guide left atrial appendage closure; follow-up imaging after left atrial appendage occlusion: something or nothing and for how long?; left atrial appendage closure: what the evidence does and does not reveal; and more. - Contains 11 practice-oriented topics including the strengths and weaknesses of the LAA covering disc occluders; left atrial appendage occlusion strengths and weaknesses of the lobe-only occluder concept in theory and in practice; the strengths and weaknesses of left atrial appendage ligation or exclusion (LARIAT, AtriaClip, Surgical Suture); the future of LAAC—in 5, 10, and 20 years; and more. - Provides in-depth clinical reviews on left atrial appendage occlusion, offering actionable insights for clinical practice. - Presents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.
