Decreased left atrial appendage velocity (LAAV) is considered a significant risk factor
thrombus formation in the left atrial appendage (LAA). The aim of this study was to assess …

Introduction Decreased left atrial appendage emptying velocity (LAAV) is a known predictor
of LAA thrombus in atrial fibrillation (AF). The aim of our study was to identify which of the …

Background Thromboembolic events are the most serious complication of atrial fibrillation
(AF), and the left atrial appendage (LAA) is the most important site of thrombosis in patients …

BACKGROUND: Left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus increases the risk of
thromboembolism in atrial fibrillation (AF), and LAA contractile function like emptying fraction …

Background: This study aimed to investigate the value of left atrial (LA) strain and strain rate
(S/SR) by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in predicting left atrial appendage (LAA) …

Background: Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is the first technique of choice for
evaluating the left atrial appendage flow velocity (LAAV) in clinical practice, which may …

Background Left atrial appendage flow velocity (LAAFV) is a predictor of thromboembolism
in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients, as well as CHA 2 DS 2-VASc score. However, little is known …

The reduction in flow velocity within the left atrial appendage (LAAFV) is associated with a
high risk of thromboembolic events. There has been few reports using sufficient sample size …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) remains a
challenging issue. This study aims to explore the left atrial appendage function by …

Background Left atrial (LA) appendage flow velocity (LAAFV) is a classic but invasive
predictor of thromboembolic events in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We aimed to …
