Transient global amnesia (TGA) could be encountered in many situations even during invasive procedures. In ablation therapy for arrhythmia, there was only one reported case in the ablation of premature ventricular beats. We report a 31-year-old man having paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia who underwent TGA at the end of ablation and recovered quickly after 8-9 hours later. Long-term follo...

This is a case report of supraventricular tachycardia following initiation of epidural analgesia with use of an epinephrine test dose in a parturient during active labor. Vagal stimulatory efforts failed to interrupt the arrhythmia, but treatment with adenosine was successful. Fetal monitoring with a scalp electrode provided evidence of fetal well-being throughout the episode. Adenosine was cho...

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a severe arrhythmia associated with sudden death in the young. It is caused by defective calcium handling in ventricular myocytes. The association of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) with CPVT is described in the literature, occurring in the lead-up to ventricular tachycardia during exercise testing. We describe three cases of SV...

Introduction Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is the most common regular supraventricular arrhythmia. It typically presents with rapid and regular palpitations of abrupt onset in young adults, with a female preponderance. In patients without structural heart disease, AVNRT is largely considered to have a benign course and is rarely associated with disabling symptoms, such as...

Two pregnant patients with a sustained symptomatic maternal supraventricular arrhythmia are presented. Both patients were treated with direct-current cardioversion. Electrical cardioversion during pregnancy is a rarely applied but highly effective procedure in the treatment of maternal cardiac arrhythmias and is assumed safe for both mother and child. However, once foetal viability is reached, ...

A patient is described in whom a large congenital aneurysm or diverticulum of the right atrium caused repeated attacks of supraventricular arrhythmia and a strikingly reduced cardiac output. The aneurysm, which contained a large thrombus, was demonstrated by preoperative angiographic examinations. At the time of operation, regular rhythm returned at the moment the aneurysm was transsected. The ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common supraventricular arrhythmia in adults and catheter ablation has increasingly become the therapy of choice for symptomatic, recurrent, drug refractory AF. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the utility of computed tomography (CT) imaging in guiding radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA), as well as highlight the additional radiographic and func...

The classic features of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome developed in a 49 year old man after he was given the heart of a donor who had had a normal electrocardiogram. The recipient showed type A pre-excitation on the surface electrocardiogram and clinically important paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. An electrophysiological study showed a left sided accessory pathway and dissociation betw...

Fifty-two patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia were studied to determine whether there was a circadian pattern to the occurrence of this arrhythmia. Antiarrhythmic therapy was discontinued, and patients were followed until they had one recurrence of tachycardia documented by telephone transmission of the electrocardiogram. By least-squares analysis, the times of day that the 52...

Objective: Supraventricular tachycardia, one of the most common conditions requiring emergency cardiac intervention in newborns, is also symptomatic tachyarrhythmia newborns. Therefore, early diagnosis and treatment approach important. 
 Method: Demographic findings, clinical approaches newborns hospitalized with supraventricular tachycardia between January 2011 November 2020 Neonatal Inte...
