WATCHMAN FLXTM
Left Atrial Appendage Closure Device
WATCHMAN FLX Device receives FDA approval for DAPT Labeling
With the approval of immediate DAPT-use post-implant, only the WATCHMAN FLX™ Implant provides you with flexibility to choose the ideal drug regimen that is best for your patient with clinical outcomes that support the safety and efficacy in preventing thrombosis and consequent stroke. Additionally, WATCHMAN FLX is the only LAAC device without a requirement of an overnight stay post procedure.
As always, you should exercise clinical judgment based on individual patient characteristics in determining the most appropriate use of anti-thrombotic drugs for the post-implant medication regimen.
