[Supraventricular tachycardia].

Supraventricular tachycardia is a common occurrence in routine clinical practice. As a physician, one can encounter them everywhere, whether as a general practitioner or as an emergency doctor in a hospital. Some tachycardias might have robbed an on-call doctor the night or the last nerve; however, supraventricular tachycardia is usually a benign condition that is easily treatable and, in many cases, even curable. This article covers the differential diagnoses of supraventricular tachycardia and its treatment options. Atrial fibrillation, also a supraventricular tachycardia, is not discussed in this article.
