For our 4th lesson, we continue our look at atrial and junctional arrhythmias.

We start off talking about one of the most common arrhythmias that you will come across in your patients, which is atrial fibrillation or afib. We give you some of the basic info that should help to identify this common but potentially serious arrhythmia.

From there we move on to talk about atrial flutter or aflutter. We explain and show how this differs from afib and give you some pointers and criteria that should help in its identification and differentiation from afib.

Lastly, we talk about our various junctional rhythms that you will see. We explain about where a junction rhythm comes from, as well as what are its unique and defining characteristics. We also talk about the different variations of junctional rhythms, including accelerated junctional and junctional tachycardia.

Hopefully by the end of this lesson you will be able to easily identify these 3 arrhythmias and be able to know the key characteristics to be able to tell each of them apart from one another.
