Key result
Echocardiographic evaluation of right atrial size and function provides powerful biomarkers for adverse cardiovascular events, requiring standardized reference values for routine clinical use.
Why the study?
Knowledge of reference echocardiographic values and measurement methods of right atrial volumes and myocardial function is required to introduce right atrial quantitation into routine clinical practice.
