الوصف: Background Left atrial (LA) strain has a prognostic value for atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after AF ablation. The value of LA strain as a predictor of AF recurrence after thoracoscopic AF surgery in patients in sinus rhythm (SR) or AF during echocardiography is unknown. Purpose To assess the association between LA strain and AF recurrence after thoracoscopic surgery for AF in both patients in SR and AF during baseline echocardiography. Methods Patients participating in the AFACT trial (n=240) with baseline transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) suitable for LA strain analysis were included in this subanalyses. All patients underwent thoracoscopic pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) with left atrial appendage (LAA) exclusion, and were randomized to ganglion plexus (GP) or no GP ablation. LA strain and mechanical dispersion (MD) of the LA reservoir, conduit and contraction phase were determined retrospectively from TTE images of both patients in AF and SR before thoracoscopic AF surgery. AF recurrence was defined as any recorded atrial tachyarrhythmia lasting >30 sec during a one year FU period. Results A total of 204 patients (58.6±7.8 years, 73% male, 57% persistent AF) were included. Of the 204 patients 121 (59%) were in SR and 83 (41%) were in AF during baseline TTE. Patients in SR during TTE had higher LA strain values and lower MD compared to patients in AF. Of all patients, those with AF recurrence had lower LA strain of the reservoir phase (13.0% vs. 16.6%; p=0.003) and contraction phase (7.4% vs. 11.5%; p=0.012). MD of the contraction phase was increased in patients with AF recurrence (65.1msec vs. 19.2 msec; p=0.003). Multivariable cox regression analysis showed an association between LA strain, MD and AF recurrence (figure). Conclusions Left atrial strain and mechanical dispersion prior to thoracoscopic AF surgery are associated with recurrence of AF. LA strain showed to be a valuable tool to add in the decision making for thoracoscopic AF surgery regardless rhythm during baseline ...
