Key result
This paper provides an algorithm for the acute and preventive treatment of supraventricular arrhythmias, incorporating new antiarrhythmic agents, ablative therapies, and pacing modalities.
The paper provides a comprehensive algorithm for the acute and preventive management of various supraventricular tachyarrhythmias.
Approaches to the treatment of supraventricular arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, atrial tachycardia, atrioventricular (AV) reentrant tachycardia, and AV nodal reentrant tachycardia, continue to evolve. Within the past two decades, many new and effective treatments have become available. These include several new antiarrhythmic agents, ablative therapies, pacing and surgical modalities, and cardioversion/defibrillation techniques. This paper provides an algorithm for the treatment of these supraventricular arrhythmias which includes therapy for the acute episode as well as the prevention of subsequent episodes of the tachyarrhythmia.

Albert L. Waldo (2009) conducted a review in Supraventricular tachyarrhythmias. Algorithm for the treatment of supraventricular arrhythmias vs. Individualized therapy was evaluated. This paper provides an algorithm for the acute and preventive treatment of supraventricular arrhythmias, incorporating new antiarrhythmic agents, ablative therapies, and pacing modalities.
