Narrow Irregular Tachycardia
- Multi-focal atrial tachycardia (MAT)
- Treat underlying cause (hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia)
- If not symptomatic and rate < 110/120 bpm, may not require treatment (e.g., patient with MAT secondary to COPD)
- Sinus Tachycardia with frequent PACs
- A fib / A Flutter with variable conduction (see also Atrial Fibrillation with RVR)
- Rate control with:
- Diltiazem
- Metoprolol
- MTP (good in setting of ACS)
- Amiodarone (good in setting of hypotension, CHF)
- Digoxin (good in setting of CHF)
- Synchronized Cardioversion (120-200 J)
- Rate control with:
