Does Left Atrial Volume Index predict new-onset atrial fibrillation and stroke recurrence in patients with Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source?
Left Atrial Volume Index (LAVi) may serve as a surrogate for atrial cardiopathy and predicts new-onset atrial fibrillation and stroke recurrence in patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source.
LAVi is associated with new-onset AF and stroke recurrence in ESUS patients and may be a better surrogate of atrial cardiopathy.
