Healthcare utilization and clinical outcomes after catheter ablation of atrial flutter. [PDF]
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

Electrophysiological Mechanisms of Atrial Flutter [PDF]
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

Risk of Atrial Fibrillation or Flutter Associated with Periodontitis: A Nationwide, Population-Based, Cohort Study. [PDF]
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

Atrial fibrillation and its determinants after radiofrequency ablation of chronic common atrial flutter [PDF]
Aim. Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a major clinical issue and its occurrence is the main problem after catheter ablation of atrial flutter. The long-term occurrence of AFib after common atrial flutter ablation is still matter of debate as it may ...

Persistent Atrial Flutter Treated by Coronary Sinus Ablation in Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava [PDF]
Ablation of atypical atrial flutter may be challenging, particularly when a complex substrate is present. The persistence of left superior vena cava and severe coronary sinus dilatation carries an arrhythmogenic potential. In this case of atrial flutter,
