  • Atrial tachycardias (AT) are an increasingly common cause of morbidity and mortality.
  • Recent advances in mapping and ablation technologies have improved the understanding and treatment of AT, making catheter ablation the most effective method for maintaining sinus rhythm.
  • An international consensus statement introduces a structured 10-point 'SMART-AT care' plan for diagnosing and treating regular AT.
  • This review discusses key updates and clinical implications, considering recent healthcare system changes.
  • The article highlights the importance of electroanatomical mapping and catheter ablation in managing AT.
