Key result
Study evaluates the link between CMR left atrial contractile function and LVEDP but lacks reported results.
Why the study?
To assess the relationship between left atrial contractile function quantified by CMR volumetry and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure.
Can left atrial contractile function assessed by CMR volumetry estimate left ventricular end-diastolic pressure in patients with impaired left ventricular systolic function?
Observational (n=26)
Can left atrial contractile function assessed by CMR volumetry estimate left ventricular end-diastolic pressure in patients with impaired left ventricular systolic function?
The study aims to determine if CMR volumetry of left atrial contractile function can be used to estimate left ventricular filling pressure in patients with impaired systolic function.
CMR left atrial contractile function utility for LVEDP estimation remains undetermined; leaves open its role in impaired systolic function.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between left atrial contractile function, as quantified by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) volumetry, and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP). Material and Methods : We assessed 26 patients with impaired left ventricular systolic function using steady-state free precession CMR volumetry. The percentage of left atrial contraction contribution (ACC) to left ventricular (LV) filling was determined. It was calculated

Tariq et al. (2021) conducted an observational in Impaired left ventricular systolic function (n=26). Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) volumetry was evaluated on Relationship between left atrial contractile function and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP). The relationship between left atrial contractile function assessed by CMR volumetry and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure was evaluated, but results are not reported in the truncated abstract.
