Left Atrial Function

Southwest Respiratory and Critical Care Chronicles, 2017
The left atrium (LA) is a left posterior cardiac chamber which is located adjacent to the esophagus. It is separated from the right atrium by the inter-atrial septum and connected to the left ventricle by the mitral valve apparatus.

Transthoracic Echocardiography as a Tool for Early Detection of Atrial Fibrillation in Patients Receiving Ibrutinib [PDF]

Life
Background: Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitors, particularly ibrutinib, have improved outcomes in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia but are associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation.

Restrictive Atrial Dysfunction in Cardiac Amyloidosis: Differences between Immunoglobulin Light Chain and Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis Patients

Biomedicines, 2022
Background: In cardiac amyloidosis, the prevalence of thromboembolic events and atrial fibrillation is higher in transthyretin amyloidosis compared to immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis.

Impact of left atrial appendage exclusion on left atrial function [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2007
We sought to investigate the short-term and midterm effects of left atrial appendage exclusion on left atrial function. Left atrial appendage exclusion is considered a possible therapeutic option for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation.
