Study Description
Brief Summary
Retrospective multicentre study on management of supraventricular tachycardia in prehospital setting.

Detailed Description
Supraventricular tachycardia in prehospital setting may be managed with adenosine administration or with synchronised electrical cardioversion and there's no clear advantage between the two, even if international guidelines suggests to practice drug-first method.This study aims to evaluate any difference in outcomes and efficacy of the two methods and possible adverse effects of both.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Efficacy of adenosine versus electric cardioversion in obtaining successful cardioversion of PSVT [Prehospital EMS assistance time]
absolute numbers and relative percentages of successful prehospital cardioversions obtained with the two techniques
Secondary Outcome Measures
- diagnostic accuracy for supraventricular tachycardia of the emergency medical service personnel [Prehospital EMS assistance time]
Sensitivity for PSVT of the EMS personnel
- adverse events [Prehospital EMS assistance time]
incidence of predefined serious adverse events (SAE) between the two groups
