2D speckle-tracking echocardiography assessment of left atrial and left ventricular mechanics: outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation treated with hybrid ablation and left atrial appendage surgical closure

Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology ·doi:10.3389/fbioe.2025.1538809

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Hybrid atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation is a therapeutic option in non-paroxysmal AF. Our study examines cardiac mechanics changes after hybrid AF ablation plus epicardial closure of left atrial appendage (LAA). METHO…
