Large left atrium (LA) and LA appendage (LAA) dysfunction are known to relate to cardiogenic thromboembolism, so the present study investigated the relation of the atrial fibrillatory wave (F wave) amplitude to hemostatic markers and LAA function. Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiographic studies were performed in 82 consecutive patients with chronic, nonrheumatic atrial fibrillation (AF). Patients were divided into 2 groups according to F wave amplitude in lead V1 on the 12-lead EGG: coarse AF (the greatest amplitude of F wave greater than or equal to1 mm, n=44) and fine AF (
