| pubmed-article:8693096 | pubmed:abstractText | The role of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in thromboembolic risk stratification in atrial fibrillation (AF) has not been established. Left atrial appendage contractile dysfunction in patients with AF predisposes to thrombus formation. The extent of blood stasis and propensity for thrombus can be assessed during TEE by measurement of the peak Doppler velocity of blood outflow from the appendage. Spontaneous echocardiographic contrast (SEC) is a swirling pattern of blood echogenicity that may be detected by TEE in the left atrium in patients with AF. The presence of SEC reflects left atrial blood stasis and a prothrombotic state. SEC is associated with an increased risk of systemic thromboembolic events. Parameters derived from TEE may provide additional prognostic data to clinical history and transthoracic echocardiography in thromboembolic risk stratification in AF. | lld:pubmed |
