This study assessed the clinical utility of mitral annulus velocity in the evaluation of left ventricular diastolic function Ln patients with atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained arrhythmia encountered in, clinical practice. The clinical usefulness of conventional Doppler indexes is limited in atrial fibrillation because of the altered left atrial pressure and loss of synchronized atrial contraction. Mitral inflow and mitral annulus velocities mere measured simultaneously with tau in 27 patients with nonrheumatic atrial fibrillation at the cardiac catheterization laboratory. Among deceleration time of mitral inflow, peak mitral inflow velocity (E), and peak diastolic mitral annulus velocity (E'), only E' correlated with tau (r = 0.51, P = .007). Prolonged tau (greater than or equal to 50 ms) could be predicted by E'
