Difference between Atrial flutter and Beta blocker

Atrial flutter vs. Beta blocker

Atrial flutter (AFL) is a common abnormal heart rhythm that starts in the atrial chambers of the heart. Beta blockers, also written β-blockers, are a class of medications that are particularly used to manage abnormal heart rhythms, and to protect the heart from a second heart attack (myocardial infarction) after a first heart attack (secondary prevention).

Similarities between Atrial flutter and Beta blocker

Atrial flutter and Beta blocker have 19 things in common (in Unionpedia): Atrial fibrillation, Atrioventricular node, Atrium (heart), Calcium channel blocker, Cardiomyopathy, Diabetes mellitus, Heart, Heart arrhythmia, Heart block, Heart failure, Hypertension, Hypotension, Metoprolol, Myocardial infarction, Nausea, Refractory period (physiology), Shortness of breath, Stroke, Tachycardia.

Atrial fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation (AF or A-fib) is an abnormal heart rhythm characterized by rapid and irregular beating of the atria.

Atrioventricular node

The atrioventricular node, or AV node is a part of the electrical conduction system of the heart that coordinates the top of the heart.

Atrium (heart)

The atrium is the upper chamber in which blood enters the heart.

Calcium channel blocker

Calcium channel blockers (CCB), calcium channel antagonists or calcium antagonists are several medications that disrupt the movement of calcium through calcium channels.

Diabetes mellitus

Diabetes mellitus (DM), commonly referred to as diabetes, is a group of metabolic disorders in which there are high blood sugar levels over a prolonged period.

Heart

The heart is a muscular organ in most animals, which pumps blood through the blood vessels of the circulatory system.

Heart arrhythmia

Heart arrhythmia (also known as arrhythmia, dysrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat) is a group of conditions in which the heartbeat is irregular, too fast, or too slow.

Heart block

Heart block is a disease or inherited condition that causes a fault within the heart's natural pacemaker due to some kind of obstruction (or "block") in the electrical conduction system of the heart.

Heart failure

Heart failure (HF), often referred to as congestive heart failure (CHF), is when the heart is unable to pump sufficiently to maintain blood flow to meet the body's needs.

Hypertension

Hypertension (HTN or HT), also known as high blood pressure (HBP), is a long-term medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is persistently elevated.

Hypotension

Hypotension is low blood pressure, especially in the arteries of the systemic circulation.

Metoprolol

Metoprolol, marketed under the tradename Lopressor among others, is a medication of the selective β1 receptor blocker type.

Myocardial infarction

Myocardial infarction (MI), commonly known as a heart attack, occurs when blood flow decreases or stops to a part of the heart, causing damage to the heart muscle.

Nausea

Nausea or queasiness is an unpleasant sense of unease, discomfort, and revulsion towards food.

Refractory period (physiology)

Refractoriness is the fundamental property of any object of autowave nature (especially excitable medium) not to respond on stimuli, if the object stays in the specific refractory state.

Shortness of breath

Shortness of breath, also known as dyspnea, is the feeling that one cannot breathe well enough.

Stroke

A stroke is a medical condition in which poor blood flow to the brain results in cell death.

Tachycardia

Tachycardia, also called tachyarrhythmia, is a heart rate that exceeds the normal resting rate.
