  2. Supraventricular tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supraventricular_tachycardia

    A normal resting heart rate is 60 to 100 beats per minute. A resting heart rate of more than 100 beats per minute is defined as a tachycardia. During an episode of SVT, the heart beats about 150 to 220 times per minute. [9] Specific treatment depends on the type of SVT [5] and can include medications, medical procedures, or surgery. [5]

  3. AV nodal reentrant tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AV_nodal_reentrant_tachycardia

    AV-nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is a type of abnormal fast heart rhythm. It is a type of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), meaning that it originates from a location within the heart above the bundle of His. AV nodal reentrant tachycardia is the most common regular supraventricular tachycardia.

  4. Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paroxysmal...

    Treatment depends on the type of heart rhythm shown on an electrocardiogram test, and the stability of the patient's blood circulation. If a patient has low blood pressure, difficulty breathing, chest pain, shock, or confusion, they are considered unstable and must have an electrocardiogram result checked to determine if the heart is beating ...

  5. Arrhythmia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhythmia

    Broad classification of arrhythmias according to region of heart required to sustain the rhythm Arrhythmia may be classified by rate ( tachycardia , bradycardia ), mechanism (automaticity, re-entry, triggered) or duration (isolated premature beats ; couplets; runs, that is 3 or more beats; non-sustained = less than 30 seconds or sustained ...

  6. Antiarrhythmic agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiarrhythmic_agent

    Prevent recurrence of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia; Reduce ventricular rate in patients with atrial fibrillation; V Adenosine; Digoxin; Magnesium sulfate; Work by other or unknown mechanisms Contraindicated in ventricular arrhythmias; Adenosine is used to treat supraventricular tachycardias, especially in heart failure and atrial ...

  7. Multifocal atrial tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifocal_atrial_tachycardia

    Multifocal (or multiform) atrial tachycardia (MAT) is an abnormal heart rhythm, [2] specifically a type of supraventricular tachycardia, that is particularly common in older people and is associated with exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

  8. Automatic tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_tachycardia

    An automatic tachycardia is a cardiac arrhythmia which involves an area of the heart generating an abnormally fast rhythm, sometimes also called enhanced automaticity.These tachycardias, or fast heart rhythms, differ from reentrant tachycardias (AVRT and AVNRT) in which there is an abnormal electrical pathway which gives rise to the pathology.

  9. Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_junctional...

    Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia (PJRT) is a rare cardiac arrhythmia. It is a supraventricular tachycardia, and a cause of atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia (AVRT). PJRT can cause chronic tachycardia that, untreated, leads to cardiomyopathy.
