What is Paroxysmal atrial tachycardia?
You can either: Go on medication These are commonly known as "beta blockers" The block beta cells, which are the cells causing your heart to beat faster. Another option is undergoing a electrophysiologic study, in which a catheter is inserted and run up into your heart to poke around and see what happeneds. Surgery is another options. If you have atrial tachycardia, contact your doctor for treatment options
