Abstract

The cases of 51-year-old female and 40-year-old male diagnosed with Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT) were presented. Treatment using peripheral adenosine bolus failed to normalize the SVT. To prevent other cardiac complications due to a long distance referral system and delayed treatment. Prompted infraclavicular approach was done followed by a bolus of 6 mg Adenosine injection via subclavian catheter direct to the heart. After adenosine administrations, their vital signs were stable. ECGs were returned to Normal Sinus Rhythm within seconds. After the treatment, their clinical outcomes were satisfied.
