Atrial Flutter in Patient With Critical COVID-19

We report the case of a patient critically ill with coronavirus disease–2019 (COVID-19) in which atrial flutter with high ventricular response rate occurred, contributing to worsening of the respiratory distress. After failure of noninvasive rate and rhythm control strategies, successful transcathet...

Zusammenfassung:	We report the case of a patient critically ill with coronavirus disease–2019 (COVID-19) in which atrial flutter with high ventricular response rate occurred, contributing to worsening of the respiratory distress. After failure of noninvasive rate and rhythm control strategies, successful transcatheter ablation was performed and the respiratory distress of the patient improved. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.)
