A pediatric patient with supraventricular tachycardia (SVT)
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following interventions is not recommended for a pediatric patient with supraventricular tachycardia (SVT)?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Cardioversion. Cardioversion is not recommended for pediatric patients with SVT due to the risk of inducing ventricular arrhythmias. The preferred interventions are vagal maneuvers and adenosine, which help restore normal sinus rhythm. Monitoring for 30 minutes allows observation for spontaneous resolution. This approach is safer and more effective than immediate cardioversion in pediatric patients with SVT.
