Catheter ablation of typical right atrial flutter in a 20‐day‐old neonate with tachycardiomyopathy
Background Fetal echocardiography can diagnose neonatal atrial flutter, which can cause heart failure in newborns. Little is known about catheter ablation in this population.

Conversion of supraventricular arrhythmias to sinus rhythm using flecainide [PDF]
We evaluated the efficacy of flecainide acetate (given intravenously to a maximal dose of2 mg kg−1 and then orally in a dose of 100 mg b.d. or 100 mg t.d.s.) in the conversion to sinus rhythm of 50 patients exhibiting supraventricular arrhythmias (39 ...

Advanced ablation strategies for management of post-surgical atrial arrhythmias. [PDF]
Post-surgical arrhythmias include a wide range of arrhythmias occurring late after cardiac surgery and represent a complex substrate for catheter ablation either because of extended scar and remodeling or because of limited access to the area of interest.

The Risk of Thromboembolic Complications in Fontan Patients with Atrial Flutter/fibrillation Treated with Electrical Cardioversion [PDF]
Atrial flutter or fibrillation (AFF) remains a major chronic complication of the Fontan procedure. This complication further predisposes this patient population to thromboembolic events.

RHYTHM-AF: design of an international registry on cardioversion of atrial fibrillation and characteristics of participating centers [PDF]
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation is a serious public health problem posing a considerable burden to not only patients, but the healthcare environment due to high rates of morbidity, mortality, and medical resource utilization. There are limited data on the
