Right atrial strain in atrial fibrillation: the hidden side of the moon
RA function, assessed through strain imaging, was progressively impaired in more severe AF subtypes, strongly correlating with bi-atrial mechanical and electroanatomical properties. Furthermore, RA function was associated with AF recurrence after catheter ablation, highlighting its potential prognostic value.
