Virtualizing clinical cases of atrial flutter in a fast marching simulation including conduction velocity and ablation scars

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2015
Diagnosis of atrial flutter caused by ablation of atrial fibrillation is complex due to ablation scars. This paper presents an approach to replicate the clinically measured flutter circuit in a dynamic computer model.

ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY: Treatment of atrial flutter [PDF]

open access: bronzeHeart, 2000
After atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter is the most important and most common atrial tachyarrhythmia. Although it was first described 80 years ago, techniques for its diagnosis and management have changed little for decades. The diagnosis rested almost entirely with the 12 lead ECG, and treatment options included only the use of a digitalis compound ...

Disease progression after ablation for atrial flutter compared with atrial fibrillation: A nationwide cohort study

open access: yesInternational journal of clinical practice, 2018
The aim of this study was to study the risk of death and development of arrhythmia and/or subsequently heart failure after an atrial flutter ablation procedure compared with an atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation procedure.

Modes of Initiation of Two Types of Atrial Reentry in a Patient with Typical Atrial Flutter: Isthmus-dependent Micro-reentry versus Macro-reentry

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2005
We studied the modes of initiation of two types of atria] reentrant tachycardias (i.e., microreentry isthmus tachycardia and counterclockwise atrial flutter) in a 39-year-old male with typical atrial flutter.

Short and Intermediate Term Outcomes of the Convergent Procedure: Initial Experience in a Tertiary Referral Center [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
PURPOSE: The Convergent procedure is a hybrid, multidisciplinary treatment for symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF) consisting of minimally invasive surgical epicardial ablation and percutaneous/catheter endocardial ablation.

Trends in atrial flutter and atrial tachycardia research

open access: yesInformatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2017
Background: Atrial flutter and atrial tachycardia are frequently observed arrhythmias that can be difficult to treat effectively with catheter ablation. It would be of interest to know the research directions for these arrhythmias in order to plan future

Transcatheter interatrial shunt device for the treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (REDUCE LAP-HF I [Reduce Elevated Left Atrial Pressure in Patients With Heart Failure]): A phase 2, randomized, sham-controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background -In non-randomized, open-label studies, a transcatheter interatrial shunt device (IASD, Corvia Medical) was associated with lower pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), less symptoms, and greater quality of life and exercise capacity in ...
