Healthcare utilization and clinical outcomes after catheter ablation of atrial flutter. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Atrial flutter ablation is associated with a high rate of acute procedural success and symptom improvement. The relationship between ablation and other clinical outcomes has been limited to small studies primarily conducted at academic centers. We sought

Atrial flutter: from ECG to electroanatomical 3D mapping [PDF]
Heart International, 2009 Atrial flutter is a common arrhythmia that may cause significant symptoms, including palpitations, dyspnea, chest pain and even syncope. Frequently it’s possible to diagnose atrial flutter with a 12-lead surface ECG, looking for distinctive waves in ...

Electrophysiological Mechanisms of Atrial Flutter [PDF]
Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2006 Atrial flutter (AFL) is a common arrhythmia in clinical practice. Several experimental models such as tricuspid regurgitation model, tricuspid ring model, sterile pericarditis model and atrial crush injury model have provided important information about

Isthmus Dependent Atrial Flutter Cycle Length Correlates with Right Atrial Cross-Sectional Area [PDF]
Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2009 Background: Right atrial flutter cycle length can prolong in the presence of antiarrhythmic drug therapy. We hypothesized that the cycle length of right atrial isthmus dependent flutter would correlate with right atrial cross-sectional area measurements.

Risk of Atrial Fibrillation or Flutter Associated with Periodontitis: A Nationwide, Population-Based, Cohort Study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 To investigate the risk of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter in patients with periodontitis (PD) in comparison with individuals without PD.We used the 1999-2010 Taiwanese National Health Insurance Research Database to identify cases of PD in the year

A novel approach to terminate roof-dependent atrial flutter with epicardial conduction through septopulmonary bundle [PDF]
BMC Cardiovascular DisordersAtrial flutter, a prevalent cardiac arrhythmia, is primarily characterized by reentrant circuits in the right atrium. However, atypical forms of atrial flutter present distinct challenges in terms of diagnosis and treatment.
