Atrial flutter most commonly occurs in a reentrant circuit around the tricuspid valve — typical atrial flutter or type I. Ablation for this rhythm is easy since it requires only venous access to get ...

This patient had classic atrial flutter with a cycle length of 240 msec prior to ablation. The P waves were deeply negative in ECG leads II, III, and aVF, and were initially upright in V1. Note that ...

Atrial flutter is similar to atrial fibrillation in that the rhythm originates in the atrium and causes a narrow complex tachycardia, which carries thromboembolic risk. Typical atrial flutter results ...

DEAR DR. ROACH: I’m a 67-year-old man who developed typical atrial flutter two years ago, but I haven’t had any symptoms that I am aware of. I don’t have a history of heart problems. My heart rate was ...

When your electrical system is working normally, the two upper chambers of the heart (atria) contract and pump blood into the two lower chambers (ventricles) in a well-coordinated way. This results in ...

A 64-year-old man with a history of typical atrial flutter underwent a standard ablation procedure during atrial flutter to create bidirectional block across the cavotricuspid isthmus. When ...
