Impact of an Emergency Department Observation Unit Management Algorithm for Atrial Fibrillation.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Though left ventricular mass (LVM) predicts cardiovascular events (CVD) and mortality in African Americans, limited data exists on factors contributing to change in LVM and its prognostic significance. We hypothesized that baseline blood pressure (BP) and body mass index (BMI) and change in these variables o...
