Various tachycardias presenting with positive P waves in the standard leads are described in this article. Sinus tachycardia may occur as a normal adaptation reaction to the environment or in the setting of autonomic dysregulation. It may also be mimicked by various arrhythmias which share the earliest depolarisation in the sinus node area. The authors expose a review of these mechanisms.
