Targeting subclinical ventricular dysfunction in atrial fibrillation: What can myocardial work add?
Elisa GherbesiLuca BergamaschiCarmine PizziStefano CarugoPublished in: Echocardiography (Mount Kisco, N.Y.) (2024)
Atrial fibrillation (AF) could impact on left ventricular function leading to a sublinical myocardial dysfunction, as identified by myocardial work parameters in a population-based cohort of AF patients compared with healthy individuals; factors associated with these parameters are also shown. SBP: systolic blood pressure; LAVI: left atrial volume index.
