Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) occurs when an abnormal electrical impulse originates causes of supra ventricular tachycardia above the ventricles, but instead of causing a single beat and a pause, it travels in circles and causes many rapid beats. To distinguish SVT from Sinus Tachycardia one must simply look at the rate: If the rate of contraction is more than 150 bpm, then it is considered SVT. Otherwise it is multifocal atrial tachycardia Sinus Tachycardia. Ventricular tachycardia medrol pac tachycardia tachycardia plaquenil (VT or "V-tach") is a similar phenomenon occurring within the tissue of the ventricles, causing an extremely rapid rate with poor pumping action. Both of these rhythms normally last for only a few seconds (paroxysmal tachycardia), but tachycardia syndrome if VT persists it is extremely dangerous, supraventricular tachycardia in pregnancy often leading nutritional supplements adverse hypertension tachycardia causes of sinus tachycardia to ventricular fibrillation.

Not sure exactly what you mean--
but its where there are extra electrical pulses to the heart that cause extra beats and racing heart.
You can take meds for it, but sometimes that doesn't work and you need surgery.
The surgery is called ablation and they send an electrical wire through a vein in the groin up to the heart to zap the part that is causing the problem.
I have an uncle and a friend who both had the surgery and it was successful for both.
Hope that helped!
