Indices of Atriale emptying:(not used in clinical routine)
1. LA total emptying volume index = LAVImax x LAVImin,
2. LA passive emptying volume index = LAVImax x LAVIpre-a,
3. LA active emptying volume index = LAVIpre-a x LAVImin.

Take Home messages
Atrial function can be assessed especially using the speckle tracking approach for a relevant assessment of LA Remodeling in many clinical condition
Great expectations for the assessment of the atrial Reservoir function in many clinical condition
A lot of researches and validations remain necessary
