ABSTRACT Background Atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter are relatively rare in young people and the incidence of thromboembolic complications is unknown. Results There were 311 episodes of AFib/AFl among 210 patients with a median age of 17 (IQR 14, 20) years.

AFIB/AFL – atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter episodes. Other times, an irregular recording can signal a medical emergency, such as a myocardial infarction or a dangerous arrhythmia. 1] Arrhythmia Recognition: The Art of Interpretation, T.Garcia, D.Garcia.

A fully upright P-wave is typical atrial activity of atrial flutter as seen in V1. See these example cases of upright P-waves: Case Continued Thus, I was all but certain that this was atrial flutter. PEARL #1: The most commonly overlooked arrhythmia is AFlutter ( A trial F lutter ).

To me, it was clearly atrial flutter with 1:1 conduction. The rate of 280 is just right for atrial flutter. The waves look like atrial flutter waves, NOT like a wide ventricular complex. Reverted to atrial fibrillation with RVR while in the hospital 3 times and needed cardioversion.

Instead, the rate of 150, plus the history of AF, suggested atrial flutter. A close inspection of lead II showed P or flutter waves at a rate of about 300 bpm, also supporting atrial flutter. There appear to be flutter waves at a rate of 300. Flecainide encourages new atrial flutter.

The WCT is interrupted by a series of variable-morphology QRS complexes, with atrial flutter waves note in II, III, and aVF. Detail of Flutter waves The rate of the flutter waves matches the rate of the WCT (about 200/m), proving that the presenting WCT had been 1:1 atrial flutter.

Electrical cardioversion is an atrial fibrillation medical procedure often recommended for patients experiencing irregular and rapid heartbeats. Cardioversion is used to correct abnormal heart rhythms, also known as arrhythmias. Atrial flutter: This is a rapid but regular heart rhythm often progressing to AFib.
