•1\. patients requiring long\-term use of oral anticoagulants for reasons other than non\-valvular atrial fibrillation (e.g., patients with implanted mechanical prosthetic valves, patients with hypercoagulable states, or patients with recurrent DVT) 2\. patients with evidence of intracardiac (especially intra\-atrial) thrombus. 3\. patients with atrial septal defect or foramen ovale repair (surgery, device implantation, etc.), or patients with atrial septal defect or foramen ovale repair (surgery, device implantation, etc.). Patients with a history of atrial septal defect or atrial septal suture closure. 4\. patients with anatomical structures of the left ventricular ear that are not amenable to closure devices. 5\. patients with contraindications to left ventricular closure (transesophageal echocardiography (TEE)) or patients with contraindications to left ventricular closure (e.g., difficulty in inserting transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) probe or catheter required for the procedure). 6\. patients with contraindications to anticoagulation, aspirin, or thienopyridine.
