These characteristics result in propagation of a flutter wave by ensuring the macro re\u2010entrant wave front does not meet its refractory tail. The time taken to traverse the circuit would take account of both of these characteristics and may provide a novel marker of propensity to develop AFL. Our goal was to investigate right atrial collision time (RACT) as a marker of existing typical AFL.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This single\u2010centre, prospective study recruited consecutive typical AFL ablation patients that were in sinus rhythm. Controls were consecutive electrophysiology study patients &gt;18 years of age. While pacing the coronary sinus (CS) ostium at 600\u2009ms, a local activation time map was created to locate the latest collision point on the anterolateral right atrial wall. This RACT is a measure of conduction velocity and distance from CS to a collision point on the lateral right atrial wall.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Ninety\u2010eight patients were included in the analysis, 41 with atrial flutter and 57 controls.

The AFL group mean RACT (132.6\u2009\u00b1\u200917.3\u2009ms) was significantly longer than that of controls (99.1\u2009\u00b1\u200911.6\u2009ms) (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001). A RACT cut\u2010off of 115.5\u2009ms had a sensitivity and specificity of 92.7% and 93.0%, respectively for diagnosis of atrial flutter.
