Macroreentrant atrial tachycardia (MRAT) is a condition in which there is involvement of re-entry circuit present in the atria. Normally there are two types of wave impulse generated in AV node slow and fast. When the fast impulse travel through the AV node to the bundle of his through the common pathway, slow wave is still on its way to common pathway but when it reaches there the refractory period of fast wave start and thus slow wave hits the fast wave refractory period and dies down. This process gets repeated again and again. But in reentrant trachycardia premature beat generated reach AV node (when the fast wave is in refractory period) activate slow wave and then travel down through its pathway to reach common pathway (to transmit signal to the bundle of his) and after that it also activate the fast wave, travel down its pathway. When the fast wave now reaches the origin it again activate slow wave which is in refractory period creating the whole circuit (reentry circuit).
