QUESTION: Recently, a 3-year-old patient in my practice urgently needed to go to the emergency department. The patient was found to have supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) and needed immediate treatment with adenosine. What evidence is currently available for management of SVT in children?
ANSWER: Supraventricular tachycardia is a common cardiac condition in the pediatric population that manifests as a narrow QRS complex tachycardia on electrocardiography. Symptoms may range from palpitations, poor feeding, and irritability to more substantial hemodynamic instability. Patients who are hemodynamically stable can benefit from interventions such as vagal maneuvers, which can be done in the office. Such maneuvers include the Valsalva maneuver, stimulation of the diving reflex (for infants), and unilateral carotid sinus massage. Other children may need pharmacologic therapies to restore normal heart rhythm, which usually consists of a rapid intravenous injection of adenosine under monitoring. For patients who are hemodynamically unstable, emergency cardioversion may be needed.
