13. Immediate Effect of percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy on atrial electromechanical delay and left atrial mechanical functions in patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis
Rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) is associated with prolonged inter and intra-atrial electromechanical delays and impaired left atrial (LA) mechanical functions, which are considered to be markers of atrial fibrillation (AF) risk. This study was conducted to assess the immediate effect of successful p...
