Coming soonCardioversion of atrial flutter refers to the therapeutic termination of atrial flutter to restore normal sinus rhythm within the cardiovascular system.
Atrial flutter is a supraventricular tachyarrhythmia characterized pathophysiologically by a rapid, organized macroreentrant circuit—most commonly involving the cavotricuspid isthmus in the right atrium—that drives atrial rates typically between 240 and 350 beats per minute.
Clinically defined on an electrocardiogram by continuous, regular "sawtooth" flutter waves with variable atrioventricular conduction, this dysrhythmia can cause hemodynamic compromise, palpitations, heart failure exacerbations, and an increased risk of thromboembolism.
Conversion back to sinus rhythm is indicated to relieve acute or persistent symptoms and prevent tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy, accomplished through either synchronized electrical countershock or pharmacological antiarrhythmic therapy.
