❤️‍🩹Atrial Flutter: Updated Insights ✨ Infographic animated. Atrial flutter is a type of rapid, regular atrial rhythm characterized by a sawtooth pattern on an ECG. Understanding its key features is crucial for diagnosis and management. Key Highlights: - Definition: Rapid, regular atrial rhythm characterized by a sawtooth pattern on ECG. - Etiology: Often associated with structural heart disease (e.g., CAD, valve disorders), pulmonary embolism, and hyperthyroidism. - Pathophysiology:Reentrant c

🔵 Atrial Flutter: Fast, Regular, and Recognizable! 🌀 What is it? A rapid, regular atrial rhythm with classic sawtooth waves on ECG. ⚡ Why it matters: Caused by a reentrant circuit—leads to atrial rates of 250–350 bpm and risk of stroke. 💡 Management Highlights: Acute: Cardioversion if unstable Rate control: Beta-blockers, CCBs, digoxin Rhythm control: Antiarrhythmics, ablation Stroke prevention: Anticoagulate per CHA2DS2-VASc ❗ Complications: Stroke, heart failure, tachycardia-induced cardiom
