Case Report: Adenosine-induced atrioventricular dissociation: unmasking monomorphic tachycardia as a diagnostic challenge in a neonate
This case highlights that monomorphic tachycardia in neonates may represent VT. Adenosine's role in inducing AV dissociation is pivotal for diagnosis, and low-energy cardioversion with β-blocker maintenance offers an effective rescue strategy. Clinicians must reassess ECG features dynamically to avoid misclassification.
