Electrophysiologic Characteristics of Wide QRS Complexes during Pharmacologic Termination of Sustained Supraventricular Tachycardias with Verapamil and Adenosine: Observations from Electrophysiologic Study

Abstract

Methods: Patients with supraventricular tachycardia, undergoing electrophysiologic study were enrolled. 12 mg of adenosine or 10 mg of verapamil were administered during tachycardia, under continuous monitoring of intaracardiac and surface electrocardiograms. Electrocardiographic features of ventricular ectopy were noted.
