Established atrial fibrillation
Atrial tachycardia: bursts of atrial tachycardia (10 beats in the middle section of the rhythm strip II at bottom) follows sinus complexes

Established atrial fibrillation
Atrial flutter: typical saw-tooth appearance of the flutter waves in the inferior leads (leads II, III, and aVF) indicates typical counterclockwise atrial flutter; the ventricular (QRS complexes) rate is variable

Atrial fibrillation: P waves are not discernible; the ventricular (QRS complexes) rate is irregularly irregular

Established atrial fibrillation
Sinus rhythm with premature ventricular complexes
From the collection of Dr Arti N. Shah

Established atrial fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation: P waves are not discernible; 'fibrillatory or f waves' of varying amplitudes and very rapid and irregular rates are particularly seen in lead V1; the ventricular (QRS complexes) rate is irregularly irregular
