Oct 8, 2024 · Atrial flutter is a form of supraventricular tachycardia caused by a re-entry circuit within the right atrium. The length of the re-entry circuit corresponds to the size of the right …

Aug 29, 2024 · A person can have both atrial flutter and AFib. Atrial flutter may not cause symptoms. But some people may have a pounding, rapid heartbeat and chest pain. Fainting or …

Atrial flutter can make your heart’s upper chambers beat 250 to 350 times a minute. This causes your lower chambers to beat fast in response, commonly as fast as 150 beats a minute or …

Mar 26, 2025 · During atrial flutter, the upper chambers of the heart, also called the atria, beat 250 to 350 times per minute. With atrial flutter, the signal that tells the atrium to beat may be …

Clinical electrophysiology has made the traditional classification of rapid atrial rhythms into flutter and tachycardia of little clinical use.

Typical atrial flutter (AFL), defined as cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI)-dependent macro-re-entrant atrial tachycardia, often causes debilitating symptoms, and is associated with increased …

Sep 19, 2025 · Flutter was defined as a regular tachycardia ≥240 beats/min with no isoelectric baseline between atrial deflections. Typical and reversal typical flutter were characterized, as …

Atrial flutter is one of the more common abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias). It's caused by an abnormal electrical circuit in the upper chambers of the heart (atria). It makes the atria beat …

Atrial flutter is a rapid regular atrial rhythm due to an atrial macroreentrant circuit. Symptoms include palpitations and sometimes weakness, effort intolerance, dyspnea, and presyncope. …

Dec 5, 2025 · Typical atrial flutter is characterized by the circuit running in a counterclockwise pattern up the septum, from medial to lateral across the right atrial roof, down the lateral wall, …
