BoxX Procedure

A comprehensive surgical AF strategy combining a box lesion and LAA exclusion.

The Isolator Synergy EnCompass® Clamp is designed to make surgical ablation transmural, contiguous and easy to perform for non-atriotomy patients.

Explore the AtriClip FLEX-Mini® and PRO-Mini® devices - Now CE Marked! ​

As the lowest profile surgical LAAM devices on the market, AtriClip Mini represents a meaningful step forward in LAAE, combining a smaller profile with enhanced visibility. ​

FLEX-Mini is specifically designed for open procedures and PRO-Mini for minimally invasive approaches, offering surgeons tailored solutions to meet evolving procedural needs.​

Join us at EACTS October 7-10 to get hands-on training and explore the devices.​

* Less volume than the next smallest LAAE surgical device.​
