Abstract

In 9 patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia the effects of tilting the body on the blood pressure and on responses during tachycardia or pacing revealed important effects that could influence the clinical presentation and the treatment required. Assessment of these reflex responses adds a major dimension to the understanding of the patient with supraventricular tachycardia.
