Currently used diagnostic manoeuvres at the electrophysiology study do not always allow for consistent identification of atrial tachycardia (AT), either because of inapplicability of the technique or because of low predictive value and specificity. The aim of this study was to determine whether overdrive atrial pacing during paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) with the same cycle length from both the high right atrium and the coronary sinus can accurately identify or exclude AT by examining the difference between the V-A intervals of the first returning beat of tachycardia between the two pacing sites.
