Atrial flutter

Atrial flutter typically involves a circuit in the right atrium

Atrial flutter

Left panel: atrial activation in typical atrial flutter (AFL). Right panel: activation in reverse typical AFL. The atria are represented schematically in a left anterior oblique view, from the tricuspid (left) and mitral rings. The endocardium is shaded and the openings of the superior (SVC) and inferior vena cava (IVC), coronary sinus (CS), and pulmonary veins (PV) are shown. The direction of activation is shown by arrows. Dashed areas mark approximate location of zones of slow conduction and block. Lettering on the right-hand panel marks the low (LPS), mid (MPS), and high (HPS) posteroseptal wall, respectively

Atrial flutter

Selected leads from a patient with reverse typical atrial flutter confirmed at electrophysiological study. The atrial deflections are negative in lead V1 and positive in leads II, III, aVF (arrows)
