摘要：
Described here are devices, methods, and systems for accessing and delivering devices to a heart. Systems used to provide access to the heart via the left atrial appendage comprise a first access element with a first alignment member, a second access element with a second alignment member, a piercing element, an exchange element and may further comprise a left atrial appendage stabilization device. Methods of accessing and delivering devices to the heart via the left atrial appendage may comprise advancing a first access element into the left atrial appendage by an intravascular pathway and advancing a second access element towards the left atrial appendage through the pericardial space. The first and second alignment members form an attachment through the wall of the left atrial appendage so that the first and second access elements are aligned.
