What Is Supraventricular Tachycardia?
Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is a condition where the heart suddenly beats much faster than normal due to an issue in the upper chambers of the heart. While not always life-threatening, it can cause significant discomfort and may require treatment to prevent complications. Common supraventricular tachycardia symptoms include heart palpitations, dizziness, shortness of breath, and chest pain. At AZ Cardiology, we offer comprehensive cardiology services, including in-house testing, to diagnose and manage SVT effectively. With experienced nurses and providers available to triage, you'll receive the highest level of care at any of our six locations in Cottonwood, Flagstaff, Prescott, Prescott Valley, Kingman, or Peoria, AZ.
How Is Supraventricular Tachycardia Treated?
Supraventricular tachycardia is often caused by abnormal electrical pathways in the heart, which can be triggered by stress, heart disease, or even caffeine. Common diagnostic tests at AZ Cardiology include EKGs, Holter monitors, and stress tests to identify the underlying causes of supraventricular tachycardia. Treatment options for SVT range from medications to control heart rate to procedures like ablation to correct the abnormal pathways. The team at AZ Cardiology is dedicated to providing personalized care, ensuring each patient receives a treatment plan tailored to their unique condition. With our comprehensive in-house services, patients can expect a seamless and supportive experience, from diagnosis to treatment.
