MODIFIED VALSALVA MANEUVER (REVERT Trial)
Valsalva maneuver is indicated for Stable Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT) before Adenosine administration.
MODIFIED VALSALVA PROCEDURE:
Position the patient in a semi-recumbent position. The patient performs a Valsalva maneuver for 15 seconds at a 40mmHg pressure, immediately followed by lying supine and elevating the legs.
SUCCESS RATE:
The Standard Valsalva maneuver is the recommended treatment for SVT, but cardioversion rates are between 5–20%.
RESULTS of REVERT:
Standard Valsalva: 37/214 (17%)
Modified Valsalva: 93/214 (43%)
BOTTOM LINE:
The Modified Valsalva Maneuver has a higher conversion rate.
