Pathophysiologic Correlates of Thromboembolism in Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation: II. Dense Spontaneous Echocardiographic Contrast (The Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation [SPAF-III] Study)

We analyzed transesophageal echocardiograms from 772 participants in the Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation (SPAF-III) study, characterizing spontaneous echocardiographic contrast (SEC) in the left atrium or appendage as faint or dense. The association of dense SEC with stroke risk factors and...
