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

Atrial fibrillation and its determinants after radiofrequency ablation of chronic common atrial flutter [PDF]
Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2005 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 ...

Post-operative atrial fibrillation is influenced by beta-blocker therapy but not by pre-operative atrial cellular electrophysiology [PDF]
, 2006 We investigated whether post-cardiac surgery (CS) new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) is predicted by pre-CS atrial cellular electrophysiology, and whether the antiarrhythmic effect of beta-blocker therapy may involve pre-CS pharmacological remodeling ...

Mechanisms of termination and prevention of atrial fibrillation by drug therapy [PDF]
, 2011 Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a disorder of the rhythm of electrical activation of the cardiac atria. It is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, has multiple aetiologies, and increases the risk of death from stroke.

Fetal Atrial Flutter: a Case Report and Experience of Sotalol Treatment
Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2006 Objective: Fetal tachyarrhythmia may cause fetal hydrops and lead to fetal morbidity and mortality. Supraventricular tachycardia and atrial flutter have been the most diagnosed.
