NARROW COMPLEX TACHYCARDIA


(Supraventricular Tachycardia)

Vagal manouvers : caution possible digitalis toxicity, acute ischaemia, or presence of carotid bruit.

Dr. Edial

Adenosine 3 mg by bolus injection repeat if necessary every 1-2 min. using 6 mg, then 12 mg, then 12 mg (ATP is an alternative)

If no adverse signs choose from :


Esmolol : 40 mg over 1 min + infusion 4 mg/min (iv injection can be repeated with increments of infusion to 12 mg/min).
Digoxin : max dose 500 g over 30 min x 2. Verapamil : 5 - 10 mg iv. Amiodarone : 300 mg over 1 hour (may be repeated once). Overdrive pacing (not AF). Dr. Edial

Amiodarone 300 mg over 15 min then 300 mg over 1 hour if necessary, preferably by central line and repeat cardioversion.
