ARRHYTHMIA Alliance has announced the launch of the first Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT) Awareness Day today during World Heart Rhythm Week (05-11 Jun) to raise understanding of this heart rhythm disorder.
SVT is a rapid increase in the heart rhythm that leaves people breathless and anxious and can go as high as 250 beats per minute.
These episodes can be short-lived for just a few minutes, or last several hours, with approx 35 people in 100,000 suffering from SVT.
Arrhythmia Alliance will launch new SVT patient resources, host a virtual coffee morning, and release a series of Living with SVT webinars.
