Rapid atrial pacing for treatment of supraventricular arrhythmias has been demonstrated to be safe and effective. Virtually any supraventricular tachycardia with the exception of atrial fibrillation, Type II atrial flutter, and probably sinus tachycardia can be treated successfully with pacing techniques. The recognition of the advantages of cardiac pacing over drug therapy or DC cardioversion has resulted in its widespread use, especially after open-heart surgery. Although the response to overdrive pacing may not reliably identify the underlying mechanism of supraventricular tachycardia, the response of the arrhythmia to pacing (i.e., whether it is interruptable or noninterruptable), is most useful in the approach to management of the individual patient.
快速心房起搏治疗室上性心律失常已被证明是安全有效的。实际上，除心房颤动、II型心房扑动以及可能的窦性心动过速外，几乎任何室上性心动过速都可以通过起搏技术成功治疗。认识到心脏起搏相对于药物治疗或直流电复律的优势，已导致其广泛应用，尤其是在心脏直视手术后。尽管对超速起搏的反应可能无法可靠地识别室上性心动过速的潜在机制，但心律失常对起搏的反应（即是否可被中断）在个体患者的治疗方法中最为有用。
