Abbott's Amulet 360 LAA Occluder Wins CE Mark

Abbott's next-generation Amulet 360 left atrial appendage occluder received CE Mark to cut stroke risk in non-valvular atrial fibrillation, with the first European implants done in Frankfurt, Lubeck and Aarhus.

Abbott received CE Mark for the Amulet 360 Left Atrial Appendage Occluder to reduce stroke risk in non-valvular AFib; the first European cases were done by Prof. Boris Schmidt in Frankfurt, Prof. Ingo Eitel in Lubeck and Prof. Jens Erik Nielsen-Kudsk in Aarhus, with wider European use in the coming weeks^[1]
The device has a softer, more conformable lobe with smaller anchors than the previous generation plus an outer disk as a second seal, and builds on the Amplatzer Amulet, in use in Europe since 2013 and the U.S. since 2021^[1]
In the VERITAS study of 400 patients at 34 sites, implant success was 99.8%, the primary safety endpoint rate 0.0%, and 93.9% of patients had complete closure (0 mm leak) at 45 days^[3]
Abbott calls it the company's fourth major electrophysiology approval in just over a year; Amulet 360 remains approved for investigational use only in the U.S.^[1]
MedTech Dive reports Abbott aims to take share from Boston Scientific: CEO Robert Ford called LAA closure a $2 billion market in which the competitor has a 90% share, and Abbott completed an FDA submission for Amulet 360 in May^[2]
