Atrial Flutter with 2:1 A-V Conduction and Mobitz Type II-Like Block in the Left Bundle Branchdoi:10.1378/chest.59.3.326This article presents the data of a patient who manifested the phenomenon of intermittent and transient left bundle branch block (LBBB) and subsequently Mobitz type II-like...
Atrial flutter is a cardiac arrhythmia characterized by atrial rates of 240-400 beats/min, usually with some degree of atrioventricular (AV) node conduction block (eg, 2:1 or 3:1 block). Approximately 60% of patients with atrial flutter have coronary artery disease (CAD) or hypertensive ...
1. Movement or variation characterized by the regular recurrence or alternation of different quantities or conditions: the rhythm of the tides. 2. The patterned, recurring alternations of contrasting elements of sound or speech. 3. Music a. The patterning of musical sound, as by differences in...
A 51-year-old woman with cardiac sarcoidosis presented with 2:1 atrial flutter (AFL) (Figure 1Ai) and was referred for catheter ablation. During sinus rhythm, a 12-lead electrocardiogram revealed trifascicular block (Figure 1Aii). Echocardiography revealed basal thinning of the interventricular ...
An aged case of atrial flutter with complete A-V block was presented. This combination of arrhythmias was emphasized to be rare, and histological study of the conduction system revealed a fresh degenerative change superimposed on the severe degenerative and fibrotic changes at the penetrating portion...
1. to strike forcefully and repeatedly: to beat a toy drum. 2. to hit (a person or animal) repeatedly so as to cause painful injury; thrash (often fol. by up). 3. to dash against: rain beating the trees. 4. to flutter or flap: a bird beating its wings. 5. to sound, as ...
Using a standardized induction protocol, we investigated the mechanism of initiation of atrial flutter, before ablation, to determine the site of initiating unidirectional block and to test the hypothesis that the direction of rotation of atrial flutter depends on the pacing site from which it initiat...
Catheter ablation of typical atrial flutter: a randomized comparison of 2 methods for determining complete bidirectional isthmus block. Complete bidirectional isthmus conduction block (CBIB) was initially assessed by sequential detailed activation mapping at both sides of the ablation line ... Anselme,Savo...

(defined as 6 months of continuous AF), 77 were assigned to the ablation arm and 69 to the drug therapy arm; 74% of patients in the ablation group and 58% of those in the control group were free of recurrent AF or flutter without antiarrhythmic drug therapy at 1 year (P = .05). ...
