Atrial Fibrillation/Flutter with RVR

In atrial fibrillation (A-Fib) and atrial flutter (A-Flutter) the electrical impulse for cardiac contraction is in the atria but isn't the normal pacemaker of the heart, the SA node. The ECG characteristics of A-Fib and A-Flutter. Recognition and treatment of unstable patients in A-Fib/Flutter with rapid ventricular response (RVR). Suggested energy settings for synchronized cardioversion of unstable patients with a narrow complex tachycardia. Team safety when cardioverting an unstable patient in A-FIB/Flutter. Adenosine’s role for stable SVT patients with underlying atrial rhythms. Treatment of stable patients in A-Fib/Flutter with RVR.
