  Haemodynamically unstable: Cardioversion is the definitive intervention to terminate SVT in children who are haemodynamically unstable. Adenosine may be given while preparing to cardiovert if the drug is readily available and the child has intravenous (IV) access. Similarly, vagal manoeuvres can be attempted while preparing for cardioversion or drug therapy, but cardioversion should not be delayed to administer vagal manoeuvres. Cardioversion — direct current cardioversion at 0.5 to 2.0 J/kg should be performed.
