Abstract: A cardiac arrhythmia simply defined is a variation from the normal heart rate and/or rhythm that is not physiologically justified. Arrhythmias are normally divided into 2 categories: ventricular and supraventricular. The present paper intended to fogous’ on discussing the cardiac arrhythmias from different aspects, most important the treatment approaches of most common types of this devastating condition which is, supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). We conducted a computerized Literature search involving human subjects, published in English until December 2016, and indexed in MEDLINE (through PubMed), EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. We reviewed articles related to supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) previously published by the ACC, AHA, and Heart Rhythm Society (HRS). References selected and published in each identified study was manually searched for more relevant articles. Understanding of the mechanism of each SVT is essential in figuring out management at the bedside and in the electrophysiology laboratory. Acknowledgment, identification, and differentiation of the various SVTs are of excellent significance in formulating an effective treatment method. Developments over the past 4 years have enabled the precise diagnosis of SVTs. Today, In the acute setting, both vagal maneuvers and pharmacologic therapy can be effective in arrhythmia termination most SVTs effective and safe.
