The Utility of Speckle Tracking Echocardiographic Parameters in Predicting Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence After Catheter Ablation in Patients with Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation
Evaluation of LA function using STE assists in stratifying the risk of AF recurrence in NVAF patients and guiding follow-up management. LASr and LA stiffness are independent predictors of AF recurrence following CA in NVAF patients, and potentially outperforming other morphological parameters.
