    AbstractHeart failure (HF) with normal ejection fraction - the isolated diastolic heart failure, depicts increasing prevalence and health care burden in recent times. Having less mortality rate compared to systolic heart failure but high morbidity, it is evolving as a major cardiac concern. With increasing clinical use of Left atrial volume (LAV) quantitation in clinical settings, LAV has emerged as an important independent predictor of cardiovascular outcome in HF with normal ejection fraction. This article is intended to review the diastolic and systolic heart failure, their association with left atrial volume, in depth study of Left atrial function dynamics with determinants of various functional and structural changes.Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
