Echocardiographic and Electrocardiographic Determinants of Atrial Cardiomyopathy Identify Patients with Atrial Fibrillation at Risk for Left Atrial Thrombogenesis

Objective: Atrial cardiomyopathy (ACM) is associated with development of AF, left atrial (LA) thrombogenesis, and stroke. Diagnosis of ACM is feasible using both echocardiographic LA strain imaging and measurement of the amplified p-wave duration (APWD) in digital 12-lead-ECG. We sought to determine...
