Nomogram to Predict Left Atrial Thrombus or Spontaneous Echo Contrast in Patients With Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation

Nomogram to Predict Left Atrial Thrombus or Spontaneous Echo Contrast in Patients With Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation

Background: The predictive power of the CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc scores for the presence of Left atrial thrombus (LAT)/ spontaneous echo contrast (SEC) in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) is modest. The aim of this analysis is to define clinical and ultrasonic variables associated with LAT/SEC...
