Overview
Sinus tachycardia can result from various causes which include: Cardiovascular (e.g. Arteriovenous fistula, cardiac tamponade, heart failure); Side effect of medications (e.g. aminophylline, amphetamines, amrinone, atomoxetine, atropine); Infectious (e.g. Chagas heart disease, Guillain-Barré syndrome, sepsis); Metabolic (e.g. Dehydration, hypoglycemia, malignant hyperthermia), and many other conditions.
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
