The novel LA strain parameters could be of potential usefulness in estimating LVEDP and incorporated into the 2016 EACVI/ASE criteria would improve the diagnostic efficiency. The novel LA strain parameters with good accuracy non-inferior to conventional echocardiographic parameters could discriminate HFpEF from patients with risk factors of HFpEF.
