Valsalva Maneuver Versus Carotid Sinus Massage for Supraventricular Tachycardia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is one of the most common cardiac arrhythmias, characterized by a sudden increase in heart rate. Initial management often involves vagal maneuvers, including the Valsalva maneuver (VM) and carotid sinus massage (CSM). VM can be categorized into standard VM (sVM) and modified VM (mVM).
