Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia mainly affecting the elderly population, which
can lead to serious complications such as stroke, ischaemic attack and vascular dementia …

Background A large majority of thrombi causing ischemic complications under atrial
fibrillation (AF) originate in the left atrial appendage (LAA), an anatomical structure departing …

The left atrial appendage (LAA) is a complex cardiovascular structure which can yield to
thrombi formation in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF). The study of LAA fluid …

Most strokes in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) are thought to arise from thrombus
formation in the left atrial appendage (LAA). Assessing the hemodynamics in LAA and left …

During Atrial Fibrillation (AF) more than 90% of the left atrial thrombi responsible for
thromboembolic events originate in the left atrial appendage (LAA), a complex small sac …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common and life-threatening disease. For the patients with atrial
fibrillation, more than 90% of the thrombi are formed in the left atrial appendage (LAA) …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) disrupts movement of the left atrium (LA) and worsens the vital
prognosis by causing thromboembolism. Ultrasound Doppler measurement, phase-contrast …

Clinical studies show that the left atrial appendage, a blind-ended structure that is attached
to the left atrium, may be the cause of 90% of atrial thrombi in atrial fibrillation (abnormal …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia characterized by irregular and rapid
electrical activity in the atria, leading to ineffective contraction and poor blood flow. More …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) carries out a 5-fold increase in stroke risk, related to embolization of
thrombi clotting in left atrium (LA). Left atrial appendage (LAA) is the site with the highest …
