An der Frage, ob der katheterbasierte Verschluss des linken Vorhofohrs bei Patienten mit Vorhofflimmern eine ebenso wirksame — oder gar bessere — Schlaganfallprophylaxe ist, wie eine orale Antikoagulation, scheiden sich die Geister. Für welche Therapie gibt es die bessere Evidenz? Lesen Sie, was unsere Experten dazu sagen.
