Atrial Flutter:

Entrainment Characteristics. Entrainment was first described based on observations during rapid (overdrive) pacing of type I atrial flutter. Entrainment is capture of the reentrant circuit of a tachycardia without interrupting the tachycardia, so that with cessation of pacing, the spontaneous reentrant tachycardia is still present. During entrainment, the orthodromic wavefront from the pacing impulse resets the tachycardia to the pacing rate,...
