Atrial flutter typically has a cycle length of 200 ms (300 cycles/min or 5 Hz); with 4:1 conduction through the AV node, this would lead to a ventricular rate of 75 bpm. We present a case of a patient with a Parkinsonian tremor at a frequency of 300 cycles/min that masqueraded as...
Objectives: To assess the validity of the diagnoses of atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL) for men and women recorded in the Danish National Patient Registry, and to assess the relative distribution of AF and AFL. Design: R... T. Rix,S Riahi,K Overvad,... 被引量: 128...
Radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial flutter: procedural success and long-term outcome. The objective of this study was to describe the procedural success and clinical recurrences after radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial flutter. A def... JS Steinberg,S Prasher,S Zelenkofske,... - ...

An increasingly recognized rhythm abnormality in these patients is atrial fibrillation/flutter (AFI/AFL), which carries an increased risk for stroke embolism and represents an absolute indication for oral anticoagulation (OAC). Primary myopathies, in which AFI/AFL has been described so far include ...
A history of atrial fibrillation and right atrial size are both determinants of procedural and long-term outcome after RF catheter ablation of type 1 atrial flutter. The results of this study suggest that patients with no history of atrial fibrillation and a normal right atrial size have the bes...
After electrical cardioversion, sinus rhythm was restored but he had recurrent atrial flutter on follow up. The patient then underwent electrophysiological study and successful radiofrequency catheter ablation of the flutter circuit. Since discharge, the patient has had no documented arrhythmias on follow...
There is no consensus on the optimal management of recent-onset episodes of atrial fibrillation or flutter. The approach to these conditions is particularly relevant in the current era of emergency department (ED) overcrowding. We sought to examine the effectiveness and safety of the Ottawa Aggressiv...

Background Catheter ablation is a potentially curable treatment for Atrial Fibrillation (AF) and Flutter (Aflut). Racial disparities have been reported in the use of cardiovascular procedures. We explored such disparities in Florida. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of all ablations be...
