Comparison of the Efficacy of Successful Leak Closure Between Available Leak Closure Methods for Clinically Relevant and Persisting Leaks Arising After Incomplete LAAC: Insights From the LAA-Leak Registry
In Brief
An observational study evaluating leak closure with either detachable embolization coils, vascular plugs/CSO, or RFA for Left Atrail Appendage Closure: Peri-device Leaks. Completed, enrolled 160 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Closure of peri-device leaks (PDL) after incomplete LAAC have shown early feasibility, however no comparison study of all the leak closure modalities exists. Therefore, this is an attempt to report the first 3-way observational comparison study to date, with results in 160 total patients in 3 arms including detachable embolization coils, vascular plugs/septal occluders and Radiofrequency ablation.

Interventions
All patients were evaluated and followed with imaging, and per investigators' respective clinical judgement, then proceeded to have an intervention for leak closure with either detachable embolization coils, vascular plugs/CSO, or RFA.
