Left Atrial Appendage Outflow Velocity Index is Superior to Conventional Criteria for Prediction of Maintenance of Sinus Rhythm after Cardioversion. An Echocardiographic Study in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation of a Few Months' Duration

Objective - To investigate whether left atrial appendage outflow velocity alone or in relation to left atrial diameter is a superior predictor of sinus rhythm maintenance after cardioversion compared with traditional clinical or echocardiography parameters. Design - Sixty-two patients with their fir...
