note = "The ACUTE trial randomly assigned patients who had atrial fibrillation (AF) of >2 days' duration to a transesophageal echocardiographically guided or a conventional strategy before cardioversion. In the 571 patients who underwent transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in the ACUTE trial, we assessed the relative predictive value of baseline data derived by history, transthoracic echocardiography, and TEE for prediction of thrombus and adjudicated embolism (thromboembolism) as a composite end point.",
