Narrow QRS complexes occur regularly. This tracing suggests either atrial flutter or ventricular tachycardia. It is not atrial flutter, however. If it were, the QRS complexes occurring regularly would ...

When your electrical system is working normally, the two upper chambers of the heart (atria) contract and pump blood into the two lower chambers (ventricles) in a well-coordinated way. This results in ...

Atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation (AFib) both occur when the electrical signals that make your heart chambers contract occur faster than typical. However, they differ in the organization of ...

Patients with atrial flutter (AFL) have a significantly lower risk for ischemic stroke than do patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), new research suggests. A team of Taiwanese investigators compared ...

Cardiologists at University of Utah Health use this therapy for people with heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias), including atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation (AFib). Your heart’s electrical ...

It is not correct to treat atrial fibrillation (Afib) and atrial flutter as equivalent risk factors for ischemic stroke, a Taiwanese cohort study suggested. From individuals included in the Taiwan ...

Atrial flutter is a type of abnormal heart rhythm that causes a rapid but regular heartbeat. It can lead to severe complications without treatment from a doctor. Atrial flutter occurs when the upper ...
