Right atrial reservoir strain predicts tricuspid regurgitation improvement after rhythm control in persistent atrial fibrillation
Functional mitral (FMR) and tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) frequently occur in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) and are largely driven by atrial remodelling resulting in annular dilatation. Rhythm control strategies may promote improvement of valvular regurgitation; however, the role of echocardio...
