2 lut 2024 · Atrial flutter ablation is a treatment for a rapid, fluttering heartbeat. It uses heat energy to create tiny scars in an upper chamber of the heart. Heart signals can't pass through the scars.
8 lip 2023 · A proposed alternative approach to peri-mitral flutter involves creating a linear ablation that extends from the mitral annulus across the anterior wall, which is located anterior to the left atrial appendage, to the right superior pulmonary vein, and an already-formed roof line.
23 paź 2001 · Atrial flutter can arise during treatment with antiarrhythmic agents prescribed to prevent recurrent AF. Atrial flutter is more organized than AF, with a saw-tooth pattern of regular atrial activation called flutter (f) waves on the ECG, particularly visible in leads II, III, and aVF.
Atrial flutter ablation is a procedure that uses hot or cold methods to damage heart cells that send abnormal signals that cause fast heartbeats. Damage to these cells in your atrium (upper heart chamber) stops the irregular signals for most people who have this procedure.
29 sie 2024 · Radiofrequency ablation has been shown to improve health-related quality of life for people with atrial flutter.

20 lis 2007 · A first occurence of atrial flutter is in 60% of cases associated with a specific acute precipitating event (major surgery, pneumonia, myocardial infarction). In 38% of cases, atrial flutter is associated with chronic illness (heart failure, lung disease, hypertension).
