Changes in transmitral and pulmonary venous flow velocity patterns after cardioversion of atrial fibrillation.

Abstract:

:To examine the recovery time of left atrial mechanical function after electrical cardioversion of atrial fibrillation, we recorded transmitral flow, pulmonary venous flow velocities, and interatrial septal motion during atrial systole within 24 hours (16 +/- 5 hours) and 10 days after cardioversion in 25 patients with atrial fibrillation, including 6 patients with hypertension, 4 with ischemic heart disease, 2 with alcoholic heart disease, 5 with dilated cardiomyopathy, and 8 with no evidence of underlying heart disease. With the exception of the five patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, the peak atrial systolic transmitral and pulmonary venous flow velocities, peak first systolic velocity of pulmonary venous flow, duration of both atrial systolic waves, and amplitude of the interatrial septal motion during atrial systole decreased markedly within 24 hours after cardioversion and increased 10 days after cardioversion. These results suggest that active atrial systolic and relaxant variables obtained from transmitral and pulmonary venous flow velocities may reflect left atrial mechanical function after cardioversion of atrial fibrillation.
