Apparatus for permanent placement across an ostium of a left atrial appendage in a patient, which includes a filtering membrane configured to extend across the ostium of the left atrial appendage. The filtering membrane has a permeable structure which allows blood to flow through but substantially inhibits thrombus from passing therethrough. The apparatus also includes a support structure comprising a plurality of fingers which are radially outwardly expandable with respect to a longitudinal axis to permanently engage the interior wall of the left atrial appendage, wherein the filtering membrane is attached to the support structure extending across the ostium of the left atrial appendage.

1. Apparatus for permanent placement across an ostium of a left atrial appendage in a patient, comprising: a filtering membrane configured to extend across the ostium of the left atrial appendage and having a permeable structure which allows blood to flow through the filtering membrane but substantially inhibits thrombus from passing therethrough; and a support structure defining a first configuration having a substantially cylindrical shape and a second configuration defining a radially enlarged medial portion to permanently engage the interior wall of the left atrial appendage, wherein the filtering membrane is attached to the support structure extending across the ostium of the left atrial appendage, wherein the filtering membrane has a composite construction comprising a filtering section and an elastic section, and wherein the elastic section has an opening to accommodate an intervention device. 2. Apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein the support structure comprises a plurality of fingers each having a first end portion, a second end portion, and a medial portion, and wherein the medial portion of each finger is radially outwardly expanded in the second configuration. 3. Apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein the fingers are fabricated of stainless steel. 4. Apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein the fingers are fabricated of nitinol. 5. Apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein the fingers comprise a barbed portion configured to engage an interior wall of the atrial appendage. 6. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising an actuator configured to remotely radially outwardly expand the support structure. 7. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the support structure comprises a membrane support frame that is radially outwardly expandable to engage the atrial wall surrounding the ostium, and wherein the filtering membrane is attached to the membrane support frame to extend over the ostium of the left atrial appendage. 8. Apparatus as defined in claim 7, wherein the membrane support frame is fabricated from a material having shape-memory characteristics. 9. Apparatus as defined in claim 7, wherein the membrane support frame is elastically expandable.
