BackgroundTypical isthmus-dependent atrialflutter (AFL) is traditionally treated through radiofrequency (RF) ablation to create a bidirectional conduction block across the cavo-tricuspid isthmus (CTI) in the right atrium.
Cavo-tricuspid isthmus (CTI) dependent atrialflutter (AFL) is one of the most common atrial arrhythmias involving the right atrium (RA). Radiofrequency catheter ablation has been widely used as a therapy of choice and it is curative.
Abstract Introduction Cavo-tricuspid isthmus (CTI) dependent atrialflutter (AFL) is one of the most common atrial arrhythmias involving the right atrium (RA) for which radiofrequency catheter ablation has been widely used as a therapy of choice.
The positive F wave in lead V1 changed during entrainment from the right atrial appendage (RAA) during typical atrialflutter (AFL). Abstract Introduction Typical atrialflutter (AFL) is a macroreentrant tachycardia in which intracardiac conduction rotates counterclockwise around the tricuspid annulus.
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI)dependent atrialflutter requires ablation of the tricuspid annulus overlying the right coronary artery (RCA). Although it is considered safe, reports of acute and subacute RCA injury in human and animal studies raise the possibility of late RCA stenosis.
Physiologically — the most commonly observed pattern of AFlutter, known as " Typical " AFlutter — produces 2:1 negative deflections seen in the inferior leads ( as seen in Figure-3 ) — as a result of CCW ( C ounter C lock W ise ) rotation of a fixed reentrant circuit around the tricuspid valve annulus and through the cavo-tricuspid isthmus.
We know atrialflutters can be confined to one atrium. Pierre Jaïs Circulation 2000 ) When such flutters transform into fibrillation, how does the spillover of signals occur to the contralateral atrium? Is there proof for this, or just an academic gossip?
Atrial Tachycardia (70%) and Typical AtrialFlutter (65%) were the most common SVTs ablated. Tricuspid atresia and elevated BNP levels were associated with increased risk of SVT recurrence (Table).Conclusion:Recurrence A trans-baffle puncture during the ablation was performed in 6 (23%) patients.
IntroductionThe precise pathophysiology of common atrialflutter remains imperfectly known. No conduction slowing is present.ConclusionsCommon atrialflutter initiates when functional unidirectional conduction block occurs on the septal cavotricuspid isthmus.
