Adenosine in the termination of albuterol-induced supraventricular tachycardia.

Five percent of children in the United States have asthma. Status asthmaticus is one of the most common conditions for which children seek care in a pediatric emergency department. beta 2-Agonists such as albuterol are the mainstay of emergency therapy for such children. We present a case of a 4-year-old boy who experienced supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) following albuterol therapy. This is believed to be the first report of adenosine being successfully used to treat a child with albuterol-induced SVT. We also briefly review the recognition and management of SVT in children and the pharmacokinetics of and indications for adenosine.[1]
