In individuals with non-valvular AF, a common illness among the ageing population in the US, this therapy serves as a proven substitute for blood thinners to lower the risk of stroke.

This module is being developed in partnership with a global leader in medical device technologies.

To identify probable LAAC patients with high precision and to provide insights to support focused care, the system scans more than 1,700 hospital codes using egnite’s data processing.
