Malignant Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia
A 63 year old male had a sudden episode of cardiac arrest during travel. He was resuscitated and cardioverted successfully with a semi-automatic defibrillator. The first ECG showed atrial fibrillation with inferior Q waves and he spontaneously reverted to sinus rhythm over the next few hours. The patient had been asymptomatic up to the episode of cardiac arrest and referred no prior history of ...

mg, mean ± SD) of disopyramide for three to five doses over 24 hours and were then restudied. All patients had inducible, sustained PSVT during the control study. After disopyramide, PSVT was noninducible in eight patients (50%), including six of nine with atrioventricular nodal reentrance and two of seven with atrioventricular reentrance; inducible but nonsustained in two (12.5%) (both with at...
متن کاملElectrophysiological mechanisms and determinants of vagal maneuvers for termination of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.
BACKGROUND The vagal maneuvers used for termination of paroxysmal supraventricular reentrant tachycardia (PSVT) appear to involve more complex mechanisms than we have known, and further study should be done to explore the possible mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS In this study, 133 patients with PSVT and 30 age- and sex-matched control subjects were included. We assessed the effects of differe...
متن کاملCircadian variation of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.
BACKGROUND Various clinical manifestations of cardiovascular diseases have a pattern of circadian variation. In this study, we investigated whether the onset and duration of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) has a circadian variation. METHODS AND RESULTS In our analysis, we included 105 patients with 498 PSVT episodes. In this study, the onset of PSVT did not have a uniform distr...
متن کاملCatheter ablation of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.
Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation became first-line therapy for supraventricular tachycardia in patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome1–5 and atrioventricular (AV) nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT)6–11 in the early 1990s. High ablation success ( 90%) and low complication rates ( 5%) were found by numerous investigators.1–11 This article describes these ablation techniques with a foc...
