The incremental value of interatrial septum motion in predicting thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation: an observational study on transesophageal echocardiography

The incremental value of interatrial septum motion in predicting thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation: an observational study on transesophageal echocardiography

BackgroundThe thickness and motion of the Interatrial Septum (IAS) possibly serves as indicators of both structural and functional remodeling of left atrium. This study aims to use transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) to assess IAS motion in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and investigate...
