Safety and effects of volume loading during transesophageal echocardiography in the pre-procedural work-up for left atrial appendage closure

BACKGROUND: In patients undergoing left atrial appendage (LAA) closure, an accurate sizing of the LAA is key to optimize device sizing, procedural success and reduce complications. Previous studies have shown that intraprocedural volume loading increases LAA dimensions and improves device sizing. Ho...
