Modular left atrial appendage closure

A system for a left atrial appendage, the system comprising:

• a modular closure device, the modular closure device including:
• an anchor element, the anchor element including a ball connected to the anchor element by a post, the anchor element including a self-expanding frame composed of a shape memory material;
• and
• a disc element, the disc element including a socket that is pivotably couplable to the ball of the anchor element and an engagement element, the disc element being composed of a shape memory material, the anchor element being sized to be received and retained within a left atrial appendage and the disc element being sized to completely cover an opening of the left atrial appendage;
• and
• a delivery device, the delivery device including a push rod that is removably couplable to the engagement element of the disc element.

A method for implanting a modular closure device within a left atrial appendage, the method comprising:

• selecting an anchor element based on the size and configuration of the left atrial appendage of a patient, the anchor element including a first connection element;
• selecting a disc element based on the size and configuration of an opening of the left atrial appendage of the patient, the disc element including a second connection element;
• coupling the first connection element of the anchor element to the second connection element of the disc element to assemble the modular closure device;
• and
• compressing the modular closure device and inserting the modular closure device into a delivery device.
