Non-pharmacological treatment of supraventricular arrhythmias [PDF]
In recent years the recognition of toxicity and relative ineffectiveness of antiarrhythmic drugs in the management of arrhythmias has led to the development of non-pharmacological approaches. In the setting of supraventricular arrhythmias, such non-pharmacological approaches include preventative pacing, atrial defibrillation, surgery and radiofrequency

ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is frequently complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). While left‐sided lesions such as bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common structural heart lesions in TS, other anomalies, such as aortic arch malformations, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), persistent left superior vena
