What is circus movement?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Atrial electricity: This is a curious phenomenon seen on the electrocardiogram in which the refractory period of the cardiac fibers in the atria causes round-and-round movement of the impulse. Your physician can explain n greater detail. "circus" (like the traveling big-top) originally meant "circles", as "three-ring circus" and the impulse in this heart condition follows a circle as well.
