Claim 4:
5. A system for isolating left atrial appendage comprising:
a clip device formed by a first jaw and a second jaw which are parallel in their closed position and overlap each other in length, the clip device having a connecting device;
a clamping element comprising a first hinge;
the connecting device comprising a second hinge;
a clamping device connected a first end of the first jaw and a first end of the second jaw, the clamping device being configured to move the first and second jaws from their diverged position to a clamping position and to hold the first and second jaws in an extended or partially extended position at any angle ranging from 0° to 180 or in the clamping position;
a control device configured to implant the clip device so that a left atrial appendage is located between the first and second jaws; and
the first hinge being connected to the first end of the first jaw and the second hinge being connected to a second end of the first jaw, the first hinge and the second hinge being configured to rotate the first jaw relative to the second jaw at an angle ranging from 0° to 180°;
wherein the first hinge is made controllable and wherein the control device comprises a first hinge actuator adapted to couple detachably with tension to fit with the first hinge; wherein a first actuator of the control device is a first elongated cylindrical element for applying rotational motion to the first hinge with optional controlled rotation of the first jaw relative to the second jaw, and wherein a second actuator of the control device is a second elongated cylindrical element being a concentric tube installed over the first elongated cylindrical element to apply rotational motion on a threaded lock nut.
