Abstract

The author discusses the technological developments to improve transseptal puncture and left atrial access using large diameter sheaths for mapping, ablation, left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion procedures. Also cited are a study on the use of transseptal dilator from Baylis Medical to aid left atrial (LA) access for large sheaths, and the positioning of a Watchman delivery sheath in LA during standard LA appendage occlusion procedure.
