Atrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia (AVNRT): Mechanism & Management 🔹 Primary Mechanism & Ablation Target AVNRT is a macro-reentrant supraventricular tachycardia dependent on dual atrioventricular (AV) nodal physiology. The typical (slow-fast) circuit uses the slow pathway for antegrade conduction and the fast pathway for retrograde conduction. Catheter ablation targeting the slow pathway is the definitive therapy. The standard anatomical target is the right inferior nodal extension wi
