Recurrence rate of atrial flutter after initial presentation in patients on drug treatment.

Anvar Babaev1, Valentin Suma, Cristina Tita, Jonathan S Steinberg.   

Abstract

Atrial flutter (AFl) recurrence after initial in-patient presentation, cardioversion, and drug treatment is almost universal, often leading to rehospitalization and risk of serious clinical consequences. Radiofrequency ablation of AFl, which has an excellent safety record, should be evaluated as a first-line approach for most patients with AFl.
