@shmerdloff just FYI, the watchman doesn’t have electrical leads. There are some hook like things that embed in to the sides of the left atrial appendage. The doctor then performs a pull test to make sure it is secured.

@bohaiboy yes. Thanks. I read that. I think they just don't want strong movement for fear of dislodging something until scar tissue secures it.
