Video Summary

The LAAO Registry is a national data collection program for adults undergoing left atrial appendage occlusion procedures to reduce stroke risk, especially in patients with atrial fibrillation who cannot tolerate long-term anticoagulation. It tracks patient characteristics, procedures, and outcomes, with follow-up at 45 days, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years. Participating hospitals submit data quarterly for quality improvement, benchmarking, and research. The registry supports assessment of safety, effectiveness, and real-world practice, helping improve care and guide evidence-based treatment for patients at risk of stroke.
