Atrial flutter.
was attempted in eight patients with drug refractory type I atrial flutter. In seven of eight patients, a zone of prolongation and fragmentation of the endocardial electrogram was found in the low posterior part of the right atrium. Entrainment of the atrial flutter by high right atrial pacing was accompanied by local recording of second-degree regional block in several atrial sectors but never...
متن کاملCharacterization of Atrial Flutter
Studies were performed using bipolar atrial wire electrodes to record atrial electrograms and to pace the atria in 27 patients who developed atrial flutter after open heart surgery. Two types of atrial flutter, classic or type I atrial flutter, and type II atrial flutter, were identified. Both types of atrial flutter were characterized by uniformity of the beat-to-beat atrial cycle length, morp...
متن کاملCongenital atrial flutter.
Atrial flutter in infants is rare (Keith, Rowe, and Vlad, 1967) and was first reported by Lewis (1915) in an infant of 3 months. Carr and McClure (1931) reported atrial flutter in a newborn infant in whom the cardiac irregularity was noted occasionally before birth and in whom the heart rate and rhythm returned to normal on the 10th day after birth. Fetal tachycardia in such a case can lead to ...
متن کامل[Atrial flutter: an update].
Invasive electrophysiologic studies have changed the clinical outlook for patients with atrial flutter. Recognition of the reentrant circuit responsible for typical atrial flutter has led to the development of catheter ablation techniques that can prevent recurrence in >90% of cases. In addition, general understanding of atrial tachycardias has changed radically, such that ECG-based classificat...
متن کاملAtrial flutter in infants.
OBJECTIVES We sought to characterize the clinical nature of atrial flutter (AFL) in a large cohort of infants. BACKGROUND There are no large studies describing the natural history of AFL in infants. Previous studies vary in the therapy used and expected prognosis. METHODS We reviewed the records of all children younger than 1 year of age who were diagnosed with AFL at our hospital during th...
