Classification of Atrial Flutter and Regular Atrial Tachycardia According to Electrophysiologic Mechanism and Anatomic Bases: A Statement from a Joint Expe... Regular atrial tachycardias classically are classified into flutter or tachycardia, depending on the rate and presence of a stable baseline on ...
Atrial flutter was first described in 1911 by Jolly and Ritchie (1) , who differentiated this arrhythmia from atrial fibrillation (AF) and reported the typical saw-tooth-shaped atrial waves in leads II and III. Early insight into atrial flutter was facilitated by Lewis, who defined the ...
Atrial flutter is the second most common tachyarrhythmia, after atrial fibrillation. Much has been learned about the mechanism of atrial flutter since the late 20th century; treatment of this arrhythmia has therefore changed.
13.7. Management of atrial flutter The stroke risk is also not much different from that in AF. Furthermore, many patients diagnosed with atrial flutter develop AF. Thus, anticoagulation should be used in patients with atrial flutter. Rate control in atrial flutter is achieved with the same medic...
I. Summary of the current concepts of the mechanisms of atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is frequently resistant to medical therapy and has no satisfactory surgical therapy. The development of an ... James L. Cox,RB Schuessler,JP Boineau - ...
We hypothesized that combined pharmacologic and simple ablative therapies in a targeted subset of patients will improve success in the treatment of atrial fibrillation.关键词: atrial fibrillation atrial flutter antiarrhythmic agents ablation DOI: 10.1111/j.1540-8167.1998.tb01837.x 年份: 1998 ...
A major advantage of the electrical reversion of atrial fibrillation is that medical personnel are in immediate attendance on the patient and are ready to institute resuscitative measures should they be needed. In addition, the defibrillator may be used in the treatment of atrial flutter, atrial ...
Intracardiac mapping and entrainment studies revealed 9 patients had counter-clockwise isthmus-dependent atrial flutter, and the remaining 4 had complex activation patterns, suggesting the presence of multiple wavefronts. All 9 patients with typical atrial flutter underwent successful ablation. None of ...
