I have been troubled with SVT issues this past year. The highest was 223bpm possibly higher I’ve had issues with ectopic beats over the years and I learned to live with them but this recent development has been sudden. I was rushed into hospital several weeks ago because I had an SVT following a bad asthma attack. Probably due to the amount of salbutamol needed in the nebulizer to stabilise my breathing. Normally it will make my heart beat very fast but by the time paramedics arrived and had me hooked up to everything they started asking if I had a heart condition, so I said I have SVT issues and they said that I was having one. Initially I thought it was a mistake and they said no I became very dizzy. I thought I was going to pass out they said they needed to take me to hospital because my heart rate was sitting at 200bpm for half an hour. I tried to convince them to wait longer but they said no it was very dangerous! I was surprised because I didn’t think it was dangerous just uncomfortable to experience. They said they would have to use blue lights and not to be frightened by it but it was to make sure they got me to hospital faster. Normally it’s a half hour ride to the hospital. My heart rate was beginning to drop by the time we reached the hospital. The SVT often starts suddenly and disappears very quickly. It’s really weird and since that episode several weeks ago my heart is doing weird things. I haven’t slept much these past few days because constant ectopic beats and flutters are keeping me awake. It’s very uncomfortable and a lot of pressure sometimes pain in the chest neck and jaw. I can assure you that if I call a doctor they will ask things do I have any chest pain? The answer would be yes coming and going. Then they would immediately send an ambulance. The problem is I have other major medical conditions so I dread A+E I’m wheelchair reliant now so it’s extremely difficult to cope with. I will say that the paramedics have been hero’s and the nurses and doctors have been fantastic. I’ve been in and out lots this year for asthma and diabetes. They really are amazing! I am not a doctor so I have no idea why this is happening. I don’t know enough about it. The pain I’ve probably pulled a muscle again. Are these normal symptoms? It’s not usually frequent. I’m exhausted and just need to sleep 😴

I went through a bad period of Afib through 2021/2022 and was cardioverted six times over eighteen months. It felt like I'd stepped into a Hell from which there was no escape. My heart rate would rise to typically between 140bpm and 180bpm. I thought that was bad, but what must it be like to be 250bpm? I don't think I'd be able to survive that. One thing I do know is that the sense of relief, peace and calm after cardioversion is beyond my ability to fully describe, but, it's the best feeling in the world. I still live with paroxysmal Afib, and awaiting catheter ablation, but in the meantime I learned to recognise the triggers that set it off, and some methods to get it back under control. Even so, I've still had episodes that can last as long as 36 hours, and can still be just as frightening. I hope the chap in the video gets his relief from his heart condition.

I do recall my face and forehead get this numbness and tingling kinda feeling before the extremities start getting that electric feeling. Those long pauses must definitely not be a fun experience for you, poor thing!!! I can only imagine because 2 seconds seems like forever for myself. And when you say it eventually gets peaceful, that thought itself is terrifying!!! Literal fight or flight mode.

Had a patient last night (in the field) call 911 for chest pain. Pt's heart rate was bouncing from 140-160. During the transfer to the gurney (five steps--maybe), Pt. stumbled and almost fell. They then started complaining about increasing chest pain. Re-evaluated rate, and it had jumped to 230-240/min. IV access established, good dose of Etomidate and shock at 200J (patient was well over 200 kg). Converted, and chest pain was relieved. Naturally the Pt. didn't remember a thing! Great video BTW.

I ended up having ablation after quite a few emergency room visits and adenosine pushes. The last time (before ablation), it took two shots of adenosine; I never considered that one wasn't enough. So when the second one worked and I asked the doctor "what if that hadn't worked?" and he shrugged and said, "the paddles?", I said, "okay, enough is enough". I had ablation 10 years ago and even though the v-fib can happen (in another spot) someday, so far, so good!

Hi Olga, Yes, the emergency physician in this video determined that his blood pressure was low and didn't want to use the propofol that we commonly use. Versed was administered and I think pain medication was given. This combination isn't as effective and I think if we were to do this over we would take a little more time to look at other options that do not drop you blood pressure.
