What Is the Optimal Digoxin Level? Challenging Case of Fetal Atrial Flutter Treatment in a Monochorionic Diamniotic Twin [PDF]

Medicina (Lithuania), 2023
Background: Atrial flutter is an infrequent yet potentially fatal arrhythmia. Digoxin is the preferred first-line treatment for fetal atrial flutter due to its efficacy and favorable safety profile.

Fetal Atrial Flutter Associated with Atrial Septal Aneurysm [PDF]

Diagnostics, 2022
Objective: To provide evidence that fetal atrial flutter (AF) caused by atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) can be completely cured by delivery. Methods: Cases series of three fetuses with ASA complicated by AF in late gestation, including hydrops fetalis in ...

Fetal Atrial Flutter: Electrophysiology and Associations With Rhythms Involving an Accessory Pathway [PDF]

Journal of the American Heart Association, 2016
BackgroundAtrial flutter (AFl) accounts for up to one third of all fetal tachyarrhythmias and can result in premature delivery, hydrops, and fetal death in 10% of cases; however, the electrophysiology of AFl in utero is virtually unstudied.

Successful management of fetal atrial flutter at term pregnancy with postnatal electrocardioversion [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports, 2021
Fetal atrial flutter is a lethal tachyarrhythmia with a 10% mortality rate. Diagnosis is made with echocardiography, and management should be multidisciplinary with obstetricians, fetal cardiologists, and specialist neonatologists.

Fetal atrial flutter in the setting of immune-mediated complete atrioventricular block: A unique combination of fetal arrhythmias [PDF]

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology
Fetal exposure to maternal anti-Ro/SSA antibodies can result in several cardiac disorders, most commonly atrioventricular block (AVB). Immune-mediated complete AVB is typically an irreversible complication of maternal anti-Ro antibodies and could result ...

Fetal Atrial Flutter: a Case Report and Experience of Sotalol Treatment

Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics and 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.

Prenatal echocardiographic diagnosis and outcomes of fetal sustained supraventricular tachycardia: a ten-year single-center experience [PDF]

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal
Fetal echocardiography plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis and management of fetal arrhythmias, allowing evaluation of the electrophysiological mechanism and guiding appropriate medical therapy. Herein, we describe our ten-year experience as a tertiary

Fetal and Long-Term Maternal Outcomes of New-Onset Arrhythmia During Pregnancy [PDF]

JACC: Advances
Background: Physiologic changes during pregnancy can trigger arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation/flutter (AF/AFL) and supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), which are associated with short-term maternal and fetal morbidity.

Atrial Fibrillation and Atrial Flutter in Pregnant Women—A Population‐Based Study

Journal of the American Heart Association, 2016
BackgroundThe goal of this study was to determine the prevalence of atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter (AF) in pregnant women and to examine the impact of AF on maternal and fetal outcomes.
