PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 7 days

Population: The number of participants analyzed includes subjects with Amulet occluder implanted.

The primary short-term safety endpoint is the occurrence of one or more of the following major adverse events within 7 days after the procedure: all-cause mortality, procedure or device-related complications requiring open cardiac surgery or major endovascular intervention, ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, or systemic embolism.

0 Participants

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 2 years

Population: The number of participants analyzed includes subjects with Amulet occluder implanted.

The primary long-term safety endpoint is the occurrence of device embolization, device erosion, clinically significant device interference with surrounding structure, device thrombus, device fracture, device related infections (endocarditis and pericarditis), device breakage, or device related allergy through 2 years. The protocol-defined time frame for endpoint assessment was 2 years. However, the study was prematurely terminated at 1 year and 11 months after study initiation. As a result, the endpoint analysis was conducted using all available data collected up to the point of study termination, but was shorter than the planned observation period.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 2 years

Population: The number of participants analyzed includes subjects with Amulet occluder implanted.

The primary effectiveness endpoint is a composite of ischemic stroke or systemic embolism through 2 years. The protocol-defined time frame for endpoint assessment was 2 years. However, the study was prematurely terminated at 1 year and 11 months after study initiation. As a result, the endpoint analysis was conducted using all available data collected up to the point of study termination, but was shorter than the planned observation period.

Timeframe: 5 years

Population: The number of participants analyzed includes subjects with Amulet occluder implanted.

Composite of damage to blood vessel or organ or damage to adjacent organs at implant, device dislodgement, device fracture, device erosion, or pericardial tamponade through 5 years post-procedure. The protocol-defined time frame for endpoint assessment was 5 years. However, the study was prematurely terminated at 1 year and 11 months after study initiation. As a result, the endpoint analysis was conducted using all available data collected up to the point of study termination, but was shorter than the planned observation period.
