Application of computed tomographic angiography and echocardiography in predicting left atrial appendage thrombosis in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
Aim: We aimed to explore the application of computed tomographic angiography (CTA) and echocardiography in predicting left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombosis in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
Methods: The clinical data of 164 atrial fibrillation patients receiving cardiac CTA and real-time three-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography (RT-3D-TEE) were retrospectively analysed. The patients were divided into group A (anticoagulant treatment group, n = 112) and group B (selective anticoagulant treatment group, n = 52) according to the CHA2DS2-VASc score, which scored for the presence or absence of congestive heart failure, hypertension, age ≥ 75 years, diabetes mellitus, stroke/transient ischaemic attack, vascular disease, age 65-74 years and gender (female). The CHA2DS2-VASc score was used to predict risk of thromboembolism from atrial fibrillation. The correlations of CHA2DS2-VASc score with CTA-based LAA classification and RT-3D-TEE measurement parameters were explored using Spearman's analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to explore the predictive value of CTA and RT-3D-TEE for LAA thrombus.
Results: There were significant differences in age, disease course, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, coronary heart disease, heart failure, stroke/transient ischaemic attack/thromboembolism, vascular disease, B-type natriuretic peptide and serum uric acid levels, CHA2DS2-VASc score, LAA classification, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left atrial diameter (LAD), maximum diameter of LAA orifice, minimum diameter of LAA orifice and LAA length (p < 0.05). CHA2DS2- VASc score was positively correlated with cauliflower LAA, LAD, maximum diameter of LAA orifice, minimum diameter of LAA orifice and LAA length, and negatively correlated with LVEF (p < 0.001). ROC curve analysis indicated that CTA, RT-3D-TEE and CHA2DS2-VASc score had similar predictive values for risk of LAA thrombosis in atrial fibrillation patients, with the areas under the curve being 0.778, 0.814 and 0.792, respectively.
Conclusions: Both CTA and RT-3D-TEE had high predictive values for LAA thrombosis in atrial fibrillation patients.
