The availability of dual Doppler echocardiography (DDE), which facilitates the simultaneous recording of Doppler waveforms at two different sites, has enhanced ability to assess single‐beat atrial mechanical delay. We sought to investigate the predictive value of intra‐left atrial mechanical delay for atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) with DDE.
