The feasibility of substituting left atrial wall strain for flow velocity of left atrial appendage
Acta Cardiologica, 2017Non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) is frequently complicated by thromboembolism. Left atrial appendage (LAA) flow is a predictor of LAA thrombosis. LAA flow is measured by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), which is a semi-invasive diagnostic tool.

Left Atrial Function: Doppler and Strain
Current Cardiovascular Imaging Reports, 2010The left atrium modulates left ventricular filling with its reservoir, conduit, and contractile functions. There is growing literature on the importance of a detailed assessment of left atrial function. This review article discusses the echocardiographic assessment of left atrial function by conventional parameters such as atrial size measurements ...

LEFT ATRIAL STRAIN IN THE ATRIAL FUNCTIONAL MITRAL REGURGITATION
Health SciencesThe article investigates the role of left atrial strain (LAS) and left atrial volume (LAV) in atrial functional mitral regurgitation (AFMR) among the patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). The aim is to evaluate LAS, LAV in AFMR patients and compare it with a control group, explore differences across AF types, and identify contributing factors to ...

Left Atrial Strain for Predicting Atrial Fibrillation Onset in Hypertensive Patients
High Blood Pressure & Cardiovascular Prevention, 2019We aimed to find new predictive parameters for atrial fibrillation (AF) onset in hypertensive patients using two-dimensional (2D) conventional and speckle tracking echocardiography of the left atrium (LA).One hundred and eight patients with essential hypertension (HTN) were prospectively enrolled, from which 67 patients had no other important ...

Left atrial strain: A memory of the severity of atrial myocardial stress in atrial fibrillation
Archives of Cardiovascular DiseasesLeft atrial (LA) strain is a simple marker of LA function. The aim of the study was to evaluate the determinants of atrial cardiomyopathy in AF.In this pilot study, we prospectively evaluated clinical, biological, metabolomic and echocardiographic parameters for 85 consecutive patients hospitalized for atrial fibrillation (AF) with restoration of sinus

Left Atrial Strain Insights in Atrial Fibrillation and the Interplay with Metabolic Syndrome
Advances in TherapyUnderstanding the interplay between metabolic syndrome and left atrial (LA) function is crucial, especially in patients newly diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AF). We evaluated the association between subclinical atrial function and metabolic syndrome in patients diagnosed with new-onset AF.A retrospective analysis was conducted on 220 patients ...

LEFT ATRIAL STRAIN AS A MARKER OF ATRIAL DYSFUNCTION IN PAROXYSMAL ATRIAL FIBRILLATION
European Heart Journal SupplementsAbstract Background and Purpose Atrial fibrillation is a progressive condition characterized by structural, functional, and electrical remodeling of the left atrium (LA). Left atrial strain (LAS), assessed using speckle–tracking imaging, is a sensitive marker of atrial function. A reduction in LAS has
