Atrial appendage excluder

An occlusion clip comprising:

• a resilient base strip including a plurality of base strip segments defining a hexagonal profile that represents an open state of the occlusion clip, wherein the vertices of the hexagonal profile are defined by live hinges formed due to a resilient nature of the base strip;
• a plurality of housing segments, wherein one housing segment is provided on each of the base strip segments;
• a pair of core elements, where each core element is disposed and extends within the plurality of housing segments defining a half of the hexagonal profile, the core element is configured for linear movement within the housing segments;
• and
• an actuator cable extending from each of the core elements, wherein in an actuated state, the core element is pulled via the actuator cable, and the pulling facilitates relative movement between the housing segments and the core elements causing the core element to straighten out the live hinges to make the housing segments collinear, thereby defining a closed configuration of the occlusion clip.
