What is Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT)?
Supraventricular tachycardia SVT is a condition where the heart beads rapidly, typically over 150 beats per minute. Although SVT may present asymptomatic, without symptoms, there may be classic signs of anxiety, heart palpitations, and diaphoresis. Treatments for SVT include, valsalva maneuvers, cardioversion, adenosine IV administration, and even surgical interventions like ablation that can help slow the heart.
In this video you will also learn how to interpret heart rhythms on EKG Strips and how to tell the difference between rhythms.

I had "SVT.". I ended up having the surgery twice. The surgery was a blessing for me. It maybe a good idea to tell your patients how dangerous it is. I had no idea an my heart raced for 36 hours before going back to normal. I felt horrible!! I got to the point with Beta Blockers I couldn't not consume any caffeine or salt.

@thebigshug88 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for such a clear video. I've had svt my whole life (now 37) Any idea why my episodes happen when I either step off a curb or down a step or stand up? Also why are the beats after your heart resets so delayed? It's not just psychological as I've managed to record an episode using heart recorder and the second "normal" beat is really long/slow. 150 to 50 in a second will always be 😳

@SSCHI376 Жыл бұрын

Can I ask how you’ve been able to live with SVT? Since I was a child, my heart rate would rapidly jump to over 150 beats a minute and would randomly drop down to normal. Recently, I’ve been having a slight increase in heart rate and now been having it more frequently.

I was diagnosed with atrial tachycardia. Had an ablation 12 years ago. The problem returned 2 years later. The episodes are not frequent. Often 2-3 times a year. Toprol really didn't help. For me the best vagal maneuver is an abrupt shoulder stand.

I was born with mine and it didn't appear til I was 9years old then at 13 I had an episode go on for 11hours which was exhausting. I had to AV nodes and my electrical pulse was on its little track circling. I had an ablation and found out my 2 av nodes were less than 2mm apart and it worked for 6yrs but its now back sadly. I used to get a heart rate of 268bpm regularly which was mental and had the a+e staff running around like crazy. Just wish it hadn't of come back

I have SVT but have never been caused by stimulants. I’ve had episodes as a kid and never had coffee or any stims as a kid. Now I’m an adult and take pre workout for my gym workouts and still never get any episodes from stims. They just happen out of nowhere like they always have since I was a kid. Even on days I don’t take any pre. We’re still trying to figure out what to do and what’s causing it.

The only thing that sucked was trying to eat/drink after because they stick a tube down your throat when they’re performing the surgery. I had completely forgot about that so i was upset trying to drink, etc. they give you aspirin to help with that pain though. Good luck with everything, wishing you a speedy recovery!!

Doctors watching: tell them what to expect with adenosine! I was not told and signed no forms, did not enjoy my experience.

@altosack Жыл бұрын

My experience is adenosine is only given after other conversion attempts have failed, and there really isn’t time to sign a consent form. Out of the three times it’s been administered to me, once they took a little too long, and my heart was sore for a couple weeks due to lack of oxygen. The adenosine itself gave me no ill effects; to the contrary, it was an immediate relief each time. Having said that, I’m a rather weird case in excellent shape (42-minute 10k and 12 strict pull-ups at 57). I have had about 20 SVT episodes in the last 25 years, usually convertible, but these last three times where adenosine was necessary seem to have been exacerbated by COVID.
