Summary

This prospective study was conducted in 268 patients aged from 65-70 years posted for coronary artery bypass grafting. Patients were randomly allocated to either adenosine or verapamil(control) groups. In the adenosine group, patients received IV adenosine 6 mg bolus then wait 2 minutes, if it failed to return to sinus rhythm then another 12 mg IV bolus of adenosine was administered, if supraventricular tachycardia persisted then the patient was shifted to verapamil. In verapamil group, patients received IV verapamil 5mg bolus slowly over 2 minutes followed by a second IV bolus dose of 5 mg ,10 minutes after the initial dose in case of persistence of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). If SVT persisted, the patient was shifted to adenosine. The efficacy of the study drug, ICU stay length, systolic blood pressure, hospital- stay length, duration of extubation, the total dose of the study drug used, the total cost of the study drugs and the incidence of adverse events were recorded.
