Impact of Left Atrial Hemodynamics on the Development of Pulmonary Vein Stump Thrombus: Results of Early and Late Postoperative Studies
Our results suggest that late postoperative hemodynamic assessments, as well as early postoperative assessments, are useful for identifying patients at high risk of PVST. A late postoperative hemodynamic assessment may contribute to determining when to discontinue anticoagulants.
