Left atrial strain — a current clinical perspective [PDF]

Kardiologia Polska, 2021
The speckle-tracking technique has become an easily accessible, quick-to-use, and straightforward tool for assessing advanced myocardial function. Achievements in the analysis of the left atrium have demonstrated that it plays an important role in the physiology and pathophysiology of the circulatory system. Deformation analysis allows the detection of

The Learning Curve for Left Atrial Strain Analysis

Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography
Left atrial (LA) strain, in particular, LA reservoir stxrain, has emerged as an important quantitative tool for the assessment of LA function in patients with heart failure, atrial fibrillation, valvular heart disease, and noninvasive estimation of left ventricular (LV) filling pressures.1 However, LA deformation analysis by two-dimensional speckle ...

Left atrial global strain supports left atrial end-diastolic volume as a measure of left atrial function

American Heart Journal Plus
Background: Left atrial end-diastolic volume index (LAEDVI), the smallest achieved diastolic volume, strongly predicts cardiovascular events. We hypothesize that echocardiographic left atrial reservoir strain (LASr) parallels LAEDVI, providing an ...

Left atrial strain parameters for predicting new-onset atrial fibrillation: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundEarly identification of new-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) is crucial for preventing related complications. Left atrial strain parameters (LASPs), evaluated by speckle tracking echocardiography, are considered promising markers reflecting ...

Left atrial strain in mitral valve disease: a comparative analysis of regurgitation and stenosis [PDF]

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background Left atrial (LA) strain analysis is an emerging echocardiographic technique for assessing LA function. This study aimed to compare LA strain parameters in patients with mitral stenosis (MS) and mitral regurgitation (MR) to identify ...
