2. Catheter ablation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catheter_ablation

   Catheter ablation is a procedure that uses radio-frequency energy or other sources to terminate or modify a faulty electrical pathway from sections of the heart of those who are prone to developing cardiac arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter and Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.

3. Atrial flutter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrial_flutter

   Atypical atrial flutter rarely occurs in people who have not undergone previous heart surgery or previous catheter ablation procedures. Left atrial flutter is considered atypical and is common after incomplete left atrial ablation procedures. [13] Atypical atrial flutter originating from the right atrium and heart's septum have also been described.

4. Wikipedia:Osmosis/Atrial flutter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Atrial_flutter

   Atrial flutter is when the atria repeatedly contract at really high rates, usually due to an underlying condition combined with premature atrial contraction. Faster atrial contraction in turn increases the number of ventricular contraction, which can cause shortness of breath, chest pain, dizziness, and nausea in certain people.

7. Radiofrequency ablation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiofrequency_ablation

   Radiofrequency ablation (RFA), also called fulguration, [1] is a medical procedure in which part of the electrical conduction system of the heart, tumor, sensory nerves or a dysfunctional tissue is ablated using the heat generated from medium frequency alternating current (in the range of 350–500 kHz).

8. Arrhythmia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhythmia

   Atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter resulted in 112,000 deaths in 2013, up from 29,000 in 1990. [10] However, in most recent cases concerning the SARS-CoV‑2 pandemic, cardiac arrhythmias are commonly developed and associated with high morbidity and mortality among patients hospitalized with the COVID-19 infection, due to the infection's ...

9. AV nodal reentrant tachycardia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AV_nodal_reentrant_tachycardia

   The main symptom of AVNRT is the sudden development of rapid regular palpitations. [1] These palpitations may be associated with a fluttering sensation in the neck, caused by near-simultaneous contraction of the atria and ventricles against a closed tricuspid valve leading to the pressure or atrial contraction being transmitted backwards into the venous system.
