Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia
20181. An aberrant conduction pathway between ventricles and atria allows impulses to be conducted in a circular pathway, without involving the SA node. The ECG shows rapid, narrow complexes without visible p-waves. 2. Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) has become nearly synonymous with its most common variant, called ...

Mechanisms and Management of Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia
Cardiology in Review, 1999Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) is defined as a regular rapid heart beat, which initiates and terminates suddenly. PSVT may have a variety of electrophysiologic mechanisms, including atrial tachycardia, atrioventricular (AV) nodal reentry, and tachycardia involving an accessory AV connection. Atrial tachycardia may be reentrant or may be

An approach to therapy for paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1988A variety of options are available for managing recurrent paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. These options include empirical drug therapy on a trial and error basis, drug therapy based on the results of electrophysiologic testing and nonpharmacologic treatment including operative therapy, catheter ablation and antitachycardia devices.

Swallowing-induced paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia
Journal of Electrocardiology, 1980This report describes an unusual case of swallowing-induced paroxysmal supraventricular (atrial or junctional) tachycardia in a young man without evidence of organic cardiac or esophageal disease. The arrhythmia was apparently potentiated by excessive coffee ingestion.

Neosynephrine in treatment of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia
American Heart Journal, 1949Abstract Neosynephrine restores the normal sinus rhythm within thirty-five to seventy seconds after rapid intravenous injection in most cases of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. The reversion of the supraventricular tachycardia is attributable to reflex cardiac inhibition elicited by the rapid rise in pressure in the carotid sinuses and ...

Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia in Pediatrics
1987For the purpose of this chapter, we will define paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) as an abnormally fast rate of sudden onset and termination originating in the atria or the AV junction. This definition also includes tachycardia with participation of these structures as part of a re-entrant pathway.

Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia: A Century of Progress
Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2007This article reviews progress in the understanding of AV junctional reentrant tachycardia and accessory pathway-mediated tachycardia in the twentieth century and in the early part of the twenty-first century. Emphasis is placed on the contributions of John Uther and the department he founded at Westmead Hospital.
