Abstract

In conclusion, adenosine is effective in terminating paroxysmal atrial tachycardia that is electrically inducible and terminable. Because both reentry and triggered automaticity could be operative in this arrhythmia, "adenosine-sensitive paroxysmal atrial tachycardia" would be a better descriptive term for this form of arrhythmia.
