Abstract

We describe the first case of atrial flutter requiring multiple cardioversions in a preterm infant. Direct current cardioversion is one of the best-understood treatment options, with a first-time success rate higher than 96%. The electrocardiograms provided reveal a second run of atrial flutter occurring after successful cardioversion. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.)
