Atrial tachycardias in young adults and adolescents with congenital heart disease: Conversion using single dose oral sotalol
International Journal of Cardiology, 08/10/09
Rao SO et al. – Oral sotalol offers an effective alternative to direct current cardioversion in adults and adolescents with CHD and hemodynamically stable atrial tachyarrhythmias. Conversion with sotalol at ~2 mg/kg generally occurred within 2 h. Vigilance for thromboembolism must be maintained as well as caution for those with bradycardia without pacemakers in this patient population. There are theoretical and practical advantages of sotalol over cardioversion.
