Left Atrial Contractility in Ischemic Heart Disease Patients with Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction

BACKGROUND: Left atrial (LA) active emptying plays an important role in left ventricular (LV) filling. It not only depends on LA preload but also on LA contractility. Our aim was to assess LA wall contraction velocity (LAWV) and its relation to each of LA active stroke volume index (LAASVI) and LA a...
