The Watchman procedure involves the implantation of a small device called the Watchman device into the left atrial appendage (LAA), a small, ear-shaped pouch in the heart. The LAA is a common site for blood clot formation in patients with AFib. The Watchman device is designed to permanently ...
WATCHMAN is a one-time, minimally invasive procedure for NVAF patients with a lifetime of stroke risk reduction without the bleeding risk associated with OACs.
With all medical procedures there are risks associated with the implant procedure and the use of the device. The risks include, but are not limited to, accidental puncture of the heart causing fluid to collect around the heart possibly leading towards the need for an additional procedure, allergi...

MadMicrobe recently completed a project showcasing Boston Scientific’s WATCHMAN device; a device implanted into the left atrial appendage of the heart to help protect patients with AFib from potential stroke-inducing blood clots. In order to clearly show the location of the procedure within the le...
