Does left atrial strain (PALS) predict clinical events in patients with acute heart failure?
Left atrial strain (PALS) serves as a significant prognostic marker in acute heart failure patients across different HF phenotypes, provided they do not have atrial fibrillation.
PALS was a significant prognostic marker in AHF patients. The prognostic power was similar regardless of HF phenotypes, but PALS was not associated with clinical events in AF patients.
Park et al. (Thu,) studied this question.
