Obesity can put strain on the heart, resulting in an increased risk of conditions such as atrial fibrillation, or irregular heart rhythms.

Atrial fibrillation, or A-fib, is an irregular heart rhythm that increases a person's risk of stroke, heart failure and even premature death.

Atrial fibrillation (an irregular, rapid heartbeat) and atrial flutter (a fast, regular heartbeat) are similar but have unique risks.

Atrial flutter For this article, we will be looking at atrial flutter to illustrate the principle behind the EKG Detective. (See Figure 2 for examples of atrial flutters).

Left atrial appendage closure is a mechanical alternative to anticoagulation, but data regarding its use after atrial fibrillation ablation are lacking.
