Comparison of Single-syringe vs. Double-syringe Techniques for Adenosine Administration in PSVT
Comparison of Single-syringe vs. Double-syringe Techniques for Adenosine Administration in Supraventricular Tachycardia: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Sponsor: Hormozgan University of Medical Sciences
Listed as NCT07554170, this observational or N/A phase trial focuses on PSVT and SVT and remains completed. Sponsored by Hormozgan University of Medical Sciences, it has been updated 1 time since 2024, reflecting limited change activity. This study contributes longitudinal data to the cardiovascular research landscape.
Study Description(click to expand)The American Heart Association 2015 guidelines recommend adenosine for non-hypotensive patients with regular narrow complex SVT. Adenosine is usually given as a rapid intravenous bolus of 6mg over 1-2 seconds, followed by a 20ml saline flush. If the first dose does not result in the termination of SVT to normal sinus rhythm (NSR) within 1-2 minutes, a repeat dose of 12mg can be given, and the dose may be repeated one more time, if necessary, for a total of three doses.
The double-syringe technique (DST) is the standard method for administering adenosine. However, recent studies suggest that the single-syringe technique (SST) may be simpler and potentially beneficial. This technique injects adenosine and saline simultaneously at the same time instead of two separate injections. The study aims to determine if the SST method is non-inferior to the DST method.
