Zusammenfassung:Left atrial occlusion devices and methods of occluding a left atrial appendage. The left atrial occlusion devices can be carried by a flexible elongate member, have an inflatable member, and have a plurality of flexible elongate implant members forming a distally open cage configuration when expanded. The implant members have a flexible format to allow them to conform to the anatomy of the left atrial appendage. The distal ends of the flexible elongate member can optionally be atraumatic.
