P. 465

AV nodal re-entry tachycardia:

  Rate 140–200 beats per minute.

  It is initiated by an atrial premature beat. Re-entry rhythm originates in the AV
  nodal area and spreads simultaneously up to the atria and down to the ventricles,

  as a result the P waves are usually hidden in the QRS complex because the atria

  and the ventricles are activated simultaneously.
