Change in cycle length during pacemaker‐mediated tachycardia: What is the mechanism?
Clinical Case Reports, 2021 A thorough understanding of advanced device algorithms designed to promote intrinsic atrioventricular conduction is mandatory to allow appropriate management of arrhythmias induced by pacing, particularly when other types of tachycardia are involved.

Arrhythmia induction using isoproterenol or epinephrine during electrophysiology study for supraventricular tachycardia [PDF]
, 2018 Background Electrophysiology study (EPS) is an important part of the diagnosis and workup for supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Provocative medications are used to induce arrhythmias, when they are not inducible at baseline. The most common medication
