The reservoir function of the left atrium represents the filling of the left atrium during ventricular systole and is governed by atrial compliance, which is most rigorously measured by mathematically ...
For individuals without a prior history of atrial fibrillation or stroke, left atrial (LA) dysfunction is more tightly linked to risk of having an ischemic stroke than LA size, according to an ...
Transcatheter implants designed to alleviate high left atrial (LA) pressures — which, as a possible way to treat heart failure (HF) once seemed like a long shot — are emerging as new stars of heart ...
Background: Atrial function is an integral part of cardiac function that is often neglected. The presence of left ventricule hypertrophy (LVH) due to arterial hypertension may impair atrial function.
PARIS, France—Patients with atrial functional mitral regurgitation (MR) appear to benefit from edge-to-edge leaflet repair, data from the MITRA-TUNE registry suggest. In patients with mitral ...
Structural or functional abnormalities within the heart's left atrium, with or without symptoms, may increase a person's risk of developing dementia later in life by 35%, according to new research ...
Heart valves allow blood to flow one way and prevent it from flowing in the wrong direction. The tricuspid valve controls blood flow between the right atrium and right ventricle. The bicuspid or ...
