Focal atrial tachycardia

Prognosis depends on the ability to control the arrhythmia. This is further influenced by the patient's age, underlying cause of the arrhythmia, tolerance of adverse effects of the chosen treatment, and comorbidities.

Eventually, the rhythm is controlled in nearly all patients, but some may go through a period of trial and error, ultimately needing ablative therapy. This treatment may have to be repeated.
