Conscious Sedation Versus General Anesthesia for Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
Percutaneous LAAO using CS allows for faster procedures and lower contrast media volumes compared to GA without compromising device success and clinical outcomes. Randomized studies with longer follow-ups are necessary to understand the long-term outcomes of percutaneous LAAO using CS.
