We present four cases of supraventricular tachycardia in pregnancy of varied aetiology. Risk factors for the development of supraventricular tachycardia and options for obstetric anaesthetic management, during pregnancy, labour, and at Caesarean section are discussed. We recommend the use of adenosine as first line therapy.
