Usefulness of Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction Assessed by Pulsed Tissue Doppler Imaging as a Predictor of Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence After Successful Electrical Cardioversion
Abstract
The impact of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction on risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence is still unknown. The aim of this study was to assess the role of LV diastolic dysfunction in predicting AF recurrence after successful electrical cardioversion in patients with nonvalvular AF. In 51 patients with a first episode of nonvalvular AF undergoing successful electrical cardioversion, tissue Doppler echocardiography was performed to...
