Gajraj et al. (1993) conducted a case report in Supraventricular tachycardia and hypotension (n=1). Phenylephrine and ephedrine was evaluated on Treatment of SVT and hypotension. Phenylephrine was successfully used to treat supraventricular tachycardia resulting in hypotension under spinal anesthesia, potentially offering advantages over ephedrine.
