SVTs can be classified in a number of ways. One way to classify them is via their electrophysiologic origin:
===Classification According to The Origin of Impulse===
 
====SVTs from a Sinoatrial Source====
===SVTs from a Sinoatrial Source===
*[[Sinus tachycardia]]
*[[Sinus tachycardia]]
*[[Inappropriate sinus tachycardia]]
*[[Inappropriate sinus tachycardia]]
*[[Sinoatrial nodal reentry tachycardia]] ([[SANRT]])
*[[Sinoatrial nodal reentry tachycardia]] ([[SANRT]])


===SVTs from an Atrial Source===
====SVTs from an Atrial Source====
*(Unifocal) Atrial tachycardia (AT)
*(Unifocal) Atrial tachycardia (AT)
*[[Multifocal atrial tachycardia]] ([[MAT]])
*[[Multifocal atrial tachycardia]] ([[MAT]])
Line 17: Line 16:
*[[Atrial flutter]] with a rapid ventricular response  
*[[Atrial flutter]] with a rapid ventricular response  


===SVTs from an Atrioventricular Source===
====SVTs from an Atrioventricular Source====
*[[AV nodal reentrant tachycardia]] ([[AVNRT]])
*[[AV nodal reentrant tachycardia]] ([[AVNRT]])
*[[AV reentrant tachycardia]] ([[AVRT]])
*[[AV reentrant tachycardia]] ([[AVRT]])
Line 23: Line 22:
**[[Junctional tachycardia|Accelerated junctional rhythm]]
**[[Junctional tachycardia|Accelerated junctional rhythm]]
**[[Junctional tachycardia|Junctional ectopic tachycardia]]
**[[Junctional tachycardia|Junctional ectopic tachycardia]]
===Classification According to The Origin of Impulse===
* [[Wide complex tachycardia]]
* Narrow complex tachycardia
