Question 1

how do you calculate the atrial rate in atrial flutter since it is fast?

Accepted Answer

300 bpm: By looking at the p-waves ( atrial electrical conduction) however in atrial flutter this almost always 300 bpm.

Question 2

how much rate atrial fibrillation with slow ventricular ?

Accepted Answer

Clarify: What are you asking exactly?  The definition of slow ventricular rate? Or specific symptoms?

Question 3

what is a common pulse rate in a person with atrial flutter?

Accepted Answer

Variable : Heart rate is variable with atrial flutter and it can be quite difficult to control. Acceptable rate is less than 100-110. The most common heart rate without medication is about 150 beats per minute.

Question 4

what is the success rate for the "firm" procedure for atrial fibrillation and are there any additional risks having it done over a normal ablation

Accepted Answer

Alternate technique: My understanding is that FIRM (focal impulse and rotor modulation) ablation is, perhaps, a more advanced ablation system using a very sophisticated catheter that, purportedly, maps locations/rotors that seemingly could trigger &amp; sustain AF. Success up to 80% in controlling AF for 2 years is reported, better than with standard ablation. Risks should be similar. Careful case selection is important!

Question 5

what is the success rate of ablation of atrial tachycardia?

Accepted Answer

Great question: It's variable depending on location (left vs right sided).  Talk to the electrophysiologist who would perform to get best information specific.

Question 6

ventricular rate	86 bpm	bpm
atrial rate	86 bpm	bpm
p-r interval	136 ms	ms
qrs duration	106 ms	ms
qt	378 ms	ms
qtc	452 ms	ms
p axis	74 degrees	degrees

Accepted Answer

Normal findings: Those values are normal. We could give you a better answer if we could see the actual ECG though.

Question 7

can atrial tachycardia start all of a sudden or have i had it all my life or can someone just develop a fast heart rate i'm f 30 no history of heart?

Accepted Answer

It can start suddenl: It is unlikely that you had it all your life without a doctor noticing it and without you knowing it.

Question 8

i had done ecg.my pulse rate is 120. fast pulse rate .they suspect left atrial enlargement. 2nd time ecg done. only fast pulse rate found.im pregnent.

Accepted Answer

May be physiologic: Since a  large left atrium is suspect have  your  physician have you see  a cardiologist. WE call this a tachycardia  but it  may be  normal depending on you physical status. Your  evaluation will clarify the situation.

Question 9

ventricular rate = 83 atrial rate = 83 pr interval = 132 qrs duration = 80 qt interval = 388 qtc calculation = 455 p axis = 14 r axis = 44 t axis = 27 18 year old female is this normal?

Accepted Answer

: Your ekg report should have normal values if they input your age and gender I think.  Ask your Dr. who knows you. I do not.  Many things affect these measurements.

Question 10

recent ekg borderline abnormal: vent rate 113 atrial rate 113, pr-qrsd-qt 136/86/324, qtip calc 444ms, p-r-t 69/ 1/31. what is abnormal about these results. is it an early indication of anything important?

Accepted Answer

: Are there any comments about the morphology of the P waves, QRS complexes, ST segments or of the T waves? I assume the mentioned numbers for P-R-T refer to their electrical axis.  Other than the rapid heart rate of 113 ( normal is 60-100), indicating sinus tachycardia,I see no other abnormalities here.
