Pharmacologic cardioversion of intrauterine supraventricular tachycardia. A case report. 1985

Fetal supraventricular tachycardia was converted successfully with digoxin, and the congestive heart failure resolved. Previous case reports of fetal supraventricular tachycardia have established guidelines for its treatment; digoxin remains the drug of choice.
