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

Post-operative atrial fibrillation is influenced by beta-blocker therapy but not by pre-operative atrial cellular electrophysiology [PDF]
<b>Introduction:</b> 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 ...

Cardioversion of atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter revisited:current evidence and practical guidance for a common procedure [PDF]
Cardioversion is widely used in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter when a rhythm control strategy is pursued. We sought to summarize the current evidence on this important area of clinical management of patients with AF including ...

Ehrlichiosis-Induced Atrial Flutter: An Unusual Cause of Atrial Flutter [PDF]
Tick-borne illness has been increasingly on the rise, since the first human case was reported in the late 1980s. Ehrlichia chaffeensis is one of the most common reported causes of tick-borne illness, particularly in the southern states of the United States.

Failure of diltiazem to prevent 1:1 conduction of atrial flutter: a case report
Background Atrial flutter with 1:1 conduction to the ventricles is a dangerous cardiac arrhythmia. Contemporary guidelines recommend atrioventricular nodal blocking agents should be co-administered with class 1C anti-arrhythmics, as prophylaxis against 1:

Contrast-enhanced CMR in patients after percutaneous closure of the left atrial appendage: A pilot study [PDF]
Background To evaluate the feasibility and value of first-pass contrast-enhanced dynamic and post-contrast 3D CMR in patients after transcatheter occlusion of left atrial appendage (LAA) to identify incorrect placement and persistent leaks.

Characterizing Recurrence Following Hybrid Ablation in Patients With Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
Purpose: It is It is widely accepted that atrial fibrillation (AF) accounts for half of arrhythmia recurrences following endocardial catheter ablation of AF.
