Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is a relatively common problem presented to the emergency department.Most sources advocate the use ofvagal manoeuvres as frst-line management, including Valsalva manoeuvre.Despite this, there is lack of standardisation as to how the technique is performed.There is currently no gold standard Valsalva manoeuvre.We propose a modified Valsalva manoeuvre, based on techniques described in small-scale electrophysiological studies, but no large clinical trials.The study was designed to assess the impact of introducing this modified Valsalva manoeuvre as the departmental standard for non-pharmacological reversion of SVT.
