Relation to Circus-Movement Flutter

Aconitine - Induced Auricular Arrhythmias and Their Relation to Circus - Movement Flutter By BARBARA

Certain characteristics of aconitine-induced auricular arrhythmias in dogs and the responses of aconitine-induced flutter to various experimental procedures and to drugs are described. In certain experiments there was evidence that a secondary flutter mechanism had developed which, in some instances, resembled flutter of circus-movement origin. When aconitine-induced and circus-movement flutter...

Participation of atrial specialized conduction pathways in atrial flutter.

The circus movement theory of flutter has been supported by numerous theoretical, experimental, and clinical studies, but there has been little consideration of the possible participation of the specialized conduction pathways of the atria. In the present work we have studied experimental atrial flutter in relation to the behavior of these pathways, in response to elevated potassium and to surg...

Atrial flutter and the circus movement hypothesis.

Clinical studies on the nature of the auricular flutter.

(Received for publication, February 13, 1956) It is widely known, that there are two different theories concerning the nature of the auricular flutter ; namely the ectopic theory and cirucus movement theory. In the previous papers' ),Q ) we attempted to clarify this problem experimentally and reported that the electrically induced auricular flutter is differed from the aconitine-induced flutter...
