Oct 7th, 2020 - Cryoballoon catheter can create large and contiguous lesions with stable contact during ablation. It has proven to be well tolerated and effective in pulmonary vein isolation. But atrial arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation, atrial tachycard...

Oct 5th, 2020 - The impact of atrial arrhythmias on COVID-19-associated outcomes are unclear. We sought to identify prevalence, risk factors and outcomes associated with atrial arrhythmias among patients hospitalized with COVID-19. An observational cohort study o...

Oct 1st, 2020 - Dapagliflozin is a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT-2i) that has recently been shown to reduce the incidence of reported episodes of atrial fibrillation (AF)/atrial flutter in the DECLARE-TIMI 58 trial. This raises the question regar...

Sep 29th, 2020 - This study aimed to evaluate the early outcomes of patients who underwent a concomitant therapeutic maze procedure for congenital heart surgery. Between 2019 and 2020, eight patients underwent surgical cryoablation by using the same type of cryoab...

Sep 27th, 2020 - Flecainide pill-in-the-pocket therapy is a pharmacologic treatment option for patients with infrequent episodes of symptomatic atrial fibrillation. We report a case of wide complex tachycardia due to atrial flutter with 1:1 atrioventricular conduc...

Sep 30th, 2018 - This systematic review is an update of an earlier report published in 2013 which evaluated questions related to stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter. Given evidence that has emerged since the publication o...

Jul 31st, 2016 - In the summer of 2015, the ACC/AHA convened the writing committee to begin the process of revising the existing atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter measure set that was released in 2008 (2) and for which implementation notes had been issue.

Feb 18th, 2011 - Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia managed by emergency physicians. There is increasing evidence that most patients with recent-onset AF or atrial flutter (AFL) can be safely managed in the emergency department (ED) without the...

Feb 18th, 2011 - The goals of atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL) arrhythmia management are to alleviate patient symptoms, improve patient quality of life, and minimize the morbidity associated with AF and AFL. Arrhythmia management usually commences...

Feb 18th, 2011 - Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) offers a promising treatment for the maintenance of sinus rhythm in patients for whom a rhythm control strategy is desired. While the precise mechanisms of AF are incompletely understood, there is subs...

Oct 13th, 2020 - Dofetilide capsules are indicated for the maintenance of normal sinus rhythm (delay in time to recurrence of atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter [AF/AFl]) in patients with atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter of greater than one week duration who hav...

Oct 8th, 2020 - TIKOSYN is indicated for the maintenance of normal sinus rhythm (delay in time to recurrence of atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter [AF/AFl]) in patients with atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter of greater than one week duration who have been conver...

Oct 7th, 2020 - Cryoballoon catheter can create large and contiguous lesions with stable contact during ablation. It has proven to be well tolerated and effective in pulmonary vein isolation. But atrial arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation, atrial tachycard...

Oct 7th, 2020 - Adenosine injection is indicated for the following. Conversion to sinus rhythm of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT), including that associated with accessory bypass tracts (Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome). When clinically advisable, a...

Oct 5th, 2020 - The impact of atrial arrhythmias on COVID-19-associated outcomes are unclear. We sought to identify prevalence, risk factors and outcomes associated with atrial arrhythmias among patients hospitalized with COVID-19. An observational cohort study o...

Sep 16th, 2019 - ANSWER The correct answer is atrial flutter with 2:1 atrioventricular (AV) conduction. The QRS complexes are narrow and regular, indicating the rhythm originates within the atria or AV node, with conduction down the normal His-Purkinje system, and.

Jan 15th, 2019 - ANSWER The correct interpretation is atrial flutter with 2:1 conduction. In the absence of exercise, a tachycardia in a range of 130-150 beats/min with a regular rate should raise suspicion for atrial flutter.

Sep 30th, 2018 - This systematic review is an update of an earlier report published in 2013 which evaluated questions related to stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter. Given evidence that has emerged since the publication o...

Aug 3rd, 2018 - 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 National Health Insurance Research Database in 200...

May 1st, 2018 - Migraine is associated with increased risk of myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, venous thromboembolism, and atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter, according to a study published online ahead of print January 31 in BMJ. Th.
