Comparing Left Atrial Strain and the HFA-PEFF Score in Diagnosing Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Cross-Sectional Study
Highlights The LA strain demonstrates diagnostic efficacy comparable to the HFA-PEFF score in diagnosing HFpEF. Integrating LA strain indices into current guidelines could enhance future HFpEF diagnostics. Background: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has a high hospitalization rate. While recent g...
