How the WATCHMAN FLX™ Pro procedure treats AFib and reduces risk of stroke | BCH Boulder Heart

The WATCHMAN™ device is the only FDA-approved implant proven to reduce stroke risk in people with atrial fibrillation (AFIB) that is not caused by a heart valve problem. Foothills Hospital was the first hospital in Colorado (full market release) to offer patients the newest technology - WATCHMAN FLX™ Pro. BCH’s WATCHMAN program is led by Srinivas Iyengar, MD - Director of Structural Heart & Interventional Cardiology. In this video, Dr. Iyengar demonstrates how he closes the left atrial appendage (LAA) by placing the WATCHMAN device inside the heart through a one-time minimally invasive procedure.
