Introduction: Left atrial function in non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) has long been underestimated when studying the ultrasound parameters of DCM. Currently, several ultrasound parameters of left atrial function have been proposed as markers to detect patients at risk.
Aim: To evaluate the left atriumfunctionwith 2D speckle tracking echocardiography and itsprognostic value in the dilatedcardiomyopathy.
