Atrial flutter produces a distinctive “sawtooth” pattern on an electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG), a test used to monitor the heart and diagnose heart rhythm disorders.

Not all atrial flutters demonstrate the typical "sawtooth" pattern. During the times of lesser conduction on this ECG, the flutter waves are more apparent. The atrial rate is organized at a rate ...

Atrial flutter is a type of ... by its classic sawtooth pattern on an electrocardiogram (ECG). ... heartbeat at rest goes above 120 bpm and if your ECG shows signs of atrial flutter.

and so they sort of beat in a coordinated 1 to 1 pattern. but an atrial flutter, the atria start beating really quickly, sometimes up to 300 times a minute. ... and they’ll get an ekg.

ECG demonstrating atrial flutter, as evidenced by regular, sawtooth flutter waves in the inferior leads and a positive deflection in V1. No isoelectric segment is present between the flutter waves.

(HealthDay)—A smartphone-operated one-lead electrocardiography (1L-ECG) device with an integral algorithm can diagnose atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL), according to a study ...

This are of varying morphology unlike those in atrial flutter. This is not quite the typical "sawtooth" pattern for atrial flutter, but it is similar. Also note the pacing spikes on this ECG are ...
