Failure of diltiazem to prevent 1:1 conduction of atrial flutter: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2023 Background Atrial flutter with 1:1 conduction to the ventricles is a dangerous cardiac arrhythmia. Contemporary guidelines recommend atrioventricular nodal blocking agents should be co-administered with class 1C anti-arrhythmics, as prophylaxis against 1:
