Supraventricular Tachycardiac causes skipping of heart beat?
My father had the condition of supraventricular tachycardiac for about 9 years. He was cured by catheter ablation av-nodal re-entry procedure. However, lately, he has been experiencing syptomatic skipping of the heart. OIt would beat at a rate of about 37 beats/minute when the condition occurred. He would feel dizzy and pale. The cardiologist said that since the heart only skips once and not twice, pacemaker is the proper prognosis. My question is: does the supraventricular tachycardiac causes this condition? What would be the typical prognosis to this type condition?
