Irregular Supraventricular Tachycardia

JAMA Internal Medicine, 2013
An86-year-oldwomanwithaknownhistoryofcoronaryarterydisease and a prior percutaneous coronary intervention presented to the emergency department with several episodes of selfresolving chest discomfort occurring at rest. She denied any shortness of breath, palpitations, and diaphoresis. Her home medications included a β-blocker.

Spectrum of supraventricular tachycardias

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1988
The term "supraventricular tachycardia" includes a wide variety of arrhythmias with very different clinical and prognostic significance. Each supraventricular tachycardia has unique characteristics and each patient, even when similar arrhythmias are present, remains a person with specific manifestations. In 1988, physicians should not be satisfied with

Management of Supraventricular Tachyarrhythmias

Chest, 1988
Supraventricular tachyarrhythmias are common and treatment is based on the frequency and hemodynamic severity caused by these arrhythmias. Empiric therapy with currently available medications often satisfactorily controls symptomatic arrhythmias. Nonpharmocologic therapy with permanent antitachycardia pacemakers, percutaneous catheter ablation or ...

The Treatment of Supraventricular Tachycardias

New England Journal of Medicine, 1985
A half century ago the two standard textbooks on cardiovascular disease allotted little space to the subject of paroxysmal auricular tachycardia.1 , 2 Concepts about this dysrhythmia were few, and ...

Classification of supraventricular tachycardias

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1987
An ideal approach to classification of supraventricular arrhythmias would be based on exact knowledge of the pathophysiology and mechanism of the arrhythmia. Unfortunately, the mechanism may not be apparent from electrocardiographic data or indeed may not be known after extensive invasive and non-invasive studies.

Adenosine and Supraventricular Tachycardia

New England Journal of Medicine, 1991
ADENOSINE is an endogenous nucleoside that is capable of causing atrioventricular nodal conduction block in humans.1 Although the use of intravenous adenosine to terminate supraventricular arrhythmias was first described in 1933,2 it is only in the past 8 years that adenosine has been investigated in detail3 and only in the past 18 months that it has ...

Acebutolol in supraventricular arrhythmias

Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1979
The effect of intravenous acebutolol on supraventricular arrhythmias was evaluated in 20 patients, 5 with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. A rapid ventricular rate in atrial fibrillation was slowed >15% in all of 10 patients by acebutolol and in none of 5 patients by saline.

Introduction to Supraventricular Tachycardia

Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2010
Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) is a clinical syndrome characterized by a rapid tachycardia with an abrupt onset and termination cardiomyopathy. The three most common causes of PSVT are atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (50%-60%), atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia in patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (25%-30%),

Intrauterine Supraventricular Tachycardia

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1978
Abstract. Four cases of intra‐uterine ectopic supraventricular tachycardia are described. In three there were none or only minor symptoms immediately after delivery and subsequently. The fourth baby having a congenital W–P–W‐syndrome was born with severe hydrops fetalis and was asphyxiated.

Supraventricular tachycardia in children

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2005
Several different mechanisms are responsible for paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia in children. Different forms of tachycardia occur at different age. Atrio-ventricular reentry tachycardia results from the presence of congenital atrio-ventricular bypass tracts and is frequently encountered at all ages.
