Atrial flutter occurs when a “reentrant” circuit is present, causing a repeated loop of electrical activity to depolarize the atrium at a rate of about 250 to 350 beats per minute; the atrial rate in ...

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Vektor Medical, a medical technology company transforming cardiac arrhythmia care, today announced it has received FDA 510(k) clearance for its next-generation vMap ® ...

HeartBeam has presented data demonstrating that its HeartBeam AI applied to vectorcardiography (VCG) technology outperformed an expert panel of heart rhythm cardiologists in detecting atrial flutter.

When your electrical system is working normally, the two upper chambers of the heart (atria) contract and pump blood into the two lower chambers (ventricles) in a well-coordinated way. This results in ...

Extended cardiac monitoring in patients and the use of implantable cardiovascular electronic devices can increase detection of atrial fibrillation (AF), but the devices have limitations including ...

Atrial fibrillation is a well-known risk factor for stroke that often remains undetected; yet, the benefit of screening of asymptomatic individuals remains unclear. A recent randomized trial ...

Atrial flutter is a type of irregular heartbeat, or an arrhythmia. It causes your heart to beat too fast. Atrial flutter doesn't always have symptoms, but it can sometimes have serious consequences if ...

Atrial flutter is a heart disorder in which the heart beats out of its normal rhythm. The condition is similar to atrial fibrillation (afib) — the most common type of arrhythmia (abnormal heartbeat) — ...
