Ebstein's cardiophysiology typically presents as an (antidromic) [[AV nodal reentrant tachycardia]] with associated [[pre-excitation]]. In this setting, the preferred pharmacological treatment agent is [[procainamide]]. Since AV-blockade may promote conduction over the accessory pathway, drugs like [[beta blockers]], [[calcium channel blocker]]s and [[digoxin]] are contraindicated.
If there is [[atrial fibrillation]] with pre-excitation, treatment options include [[procainamide]], [[flecainide]], [[propafenone]], [[dofetilide]] and [[ibutilide]] since these medications slow conduction in the accessory pathway causing the tachycardia and should be administered before considering electrical [[cardioversion]]. Intravenous [[amiodarone]] may also convert atrial fibrillation and/or slow the ventricular response.
[[Warfarin]] is recommended for patients with Ebstein’s anomaly with a history of paradoxical embolus or [[atrial fibrillation]].
Diuretics aid in flushing excess fluid from the body, thereby easing strain on the heart.
Cardiac glycosides are used to maintain proper heart rhythm while increasing the strength of each contraction.
