TCT-520 PROspective, Randomized Comparison of 3-Dimensional Computed Tomography Guidance versus TEE data for Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion (PRO3DLAAO)

Background Preliminary data comparing 3-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) to transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) indicates that 3D-CT provides more accurate measurements and improves case planning. [...]we conducted a pilot study comparing 3D-CT to...

Summary:Background Preliminary data comparing 3-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) to transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) indicates that 3D-CT provides more accurate measurements and improves case planning. [...]we conducted a pilot study comparing 3D-CT to TEE in occluder selection accuracy and procedural efficiency. The primary endpoint was device accuracy while the secondary endpoints included # devices per case, # guide catheters used per case, # fluoroscopy angles used, procedure time, fluoroscopy time, radiation dose and major adverse events (stroke, MI, device embolization, perforation, death).
