Abstract
Objective To study the effect of verapamil and propafenone on paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia(PSVT).Methods42 PSVT patients were treated with intravenous verapamil,and the other 40 patients of PSVT were treated with intravenous propafenone.ResultsTermination rate of PSVT was 88.1% and the onset of action was(21.78±13.60)min in verapamil group;the termination rate of PSVT was 85.0% and the onset of action was(39.18±17.89)min in propafenone group.There was no difference between the 2 groups on rates of termination(χ2=0.169 0,P0.05),but there was significant difference between the 2 groups on the onset of action(t=4.635 2,P0.01).ConclusionThe effect of verapami on PSVT is better than propafenone.
