- BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a bi-atrial disease yet little attention has been given to right heart function in AF. We propose that the assessment of right atrial (RA) and right ventricular function (RV) using two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) could be valuable in predicting AF recurrence in patients with paroxysmal AF (PAF).METHODS: Thirty patients with PAF were prospectively recruited from a dedicated AF clinic. Right atrial size, volume, and area and RV dimensions were analyzed along with RA and RV strain derived from 2D-STE at baseline and at 3 and 12 months.RESULTS: Higher RA booster strain independently predicted sinus rhythm (SR) maintenance for up to 1 year (P = 0.001). RV strain was impaired in patients with recurrent AF compared to those in SR (P < 0.05) but did not predict AF recurrence. Two-dimensional STE for RA and RV function was simple to perform with excellent reproducibility (adjusted R (2) 0.92-0.99).CONCLUSIONS: Two-dimensional STE is useful and highly reproducible in assessing right heart function in AF patients. RA booster strain function was predictive of sinus rhythm maintenance for up to 1 year.
