Not all atrial flutters demonstrate the typical "sawtooth" pattern. During the times of lesser conduction on this ECG, the flutter waves are more apparent. The atrial rate is organized at a rate of ...

MANY common arrhythmias observed in both atria and ventricles are similar although the atrial types have a few important distinguishing features. Thus, so far as therapy is concerned, the atrial ...

Dr. Hugh Calkins answers the question: 'Atrial Fibrillation vs. Atrial Flutter?' — -- Question: My doctor told me I sometimes have atrial fibrillation and at other times have atrial flutter. What ...

Not all atrial flutters demonstrate the typical "sawtooth" pattern. During the times of lesser conduction on this ECG, the flutter waves are more apparent. The atrial rate is organized at a rate of ...

In a new publication from Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications; DOI https://doi.org/10.15212/CVIA.2021.0022, Chen Chun-hui and Ning Li-ye from Dongguan Kanghua ...

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 ...

Atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation (AFib) both occur when the electrical signals that make your heart chambers contract occur faster than normal. However, they differ in how this electrical ...

The rhythm in Figure 1 has a subtle pattern—a narrow QRS complex with alternating short and long R-R intervals, resulting in paired QRS complexes. Careful observation of V1 in Figure 2 reveals tiny ...

Narrow QRS complexes occur regularly. This tracing suggests either atrial flutter or ventricular tachycardia. It is not atrial flutter, however. If it were, the QRS complexes occurring regularly would ...

Cardiologists at University of Utah Health use this therapy for people with heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias), including atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation (AFib). Your heart’s electrical ...
