Narrow QRS complex tachycardias.
Mayo Clinic Proceedings 1995 April
Regular narrow QRS complex tachycardias are a common problem encountered by general internists or family practitioners. Although such tachycardias often occur in patients with a normal heart and seldom represent life-threatening conditions, they may cause bothersome symptoms. The key to approaching the diagnosis of these arrhythmias is identifying atrial activity (P waves) on the surface electrocardiogram and classifying the tachycardia as long RP or short RP. On the basis of that information, a differential diagnosis can be generated, logical therapy can be delivered for termination of the tachycardia, and a plan can be developed to prevent recurrence. Because intravenously administered adenosine alleviates 90% of the episodes of supraventricular tachycardias and has minimal side effects, it has become the drug of choice for termination of most types of narrow QRS complex tachycardias.
