* Atrial flutter produces an atrial rate between 250 and 400 BPM. The ventricular rate may increase, but it is always slower than the atrial rate. During atrial flutter, atrial impulses are conducted to the ventricles in various ratios. Even conduction ratios (2:1, 4:1) are more common than odd ratios (3:1, 5:1). In a 2:1 ratio, there are two flutter waves for every QRS complex. A constant conduction ratio (e.g., 2:1) results in a regular ventricular rhythm (most common). A variable ratio (e.g., 4:1 to 2:1 to 5:1) results in an irregular ventricular rhythm. * The following EKG findings he
