Key result
Left atrial function is an important factor in the development and course prediction of heart failure, particularly heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
Why the study?
Diagnosing and predicting HFpEF remains challenging, and the role of left atrial function in the development and course prediction of HF warrants review.
This review summarizes recent studies on the role of left atrial function in the development and prognostic prediction of heart failure.

May inform HFpEF risk stratification; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective trials before practice change.
Improvement of the treatment and diagnosis of hypertension and heart failure (HF) contributes to an increase in life expectancy of the population and, accordingly, its aging. The problem of diagnosing and predicting HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is currently one of the urgent problems. The role of left atrial function in the development and course prediction of HF are the subject of scientific study. This review provides an analysis of recent studies on left atrial function in HF patients.
