4-Cardiac Arrhythmias
... The ectopic focus, and “circus movement” in the atrium is the mechanism of this arrhythmia. Atrial flutter is characterized by an atrial rate (F wave with “sawtooth” configuration) of about 300 (range 240 to 360) bpm, a ventricular response with varying degrees of block (e.g., 2:1, 3:1, 4:1), and ...
