This medical PowerPoint presentation talks about Arrhythmia in babies and children.

Arrhythmia refers to an abnormal heart rhythm or heartbeat. In babies and children, arrhythmia can occur due to a variety of reasons, including structural heart defects, electrolyte imbalances, infections, and inherited genetic conditions.

Treatment for arrhythmia in babies and children depends on the underlying cause of the condition. Treatment options may include medication, surgery, or implantable devices such as pacemakers or defibrillators. It is important to consult with a pediatric cardiologist for diagnosis and management of arrhythmia in babies and children.

Arrhythmias
Slide 17-

Supraventricular tachycardia Commonest tachyarrhythmia in childhood Majority has a structurally normal heart Short lived SVTs are not life threatening Baseline ECG: May reveal predisposing features 24 hour ECG Event recorder
Slide 18-

SVT in children Common Arrhythmia in children Can be asymptomatic Adenosine mainstay for acute attacks Chronic SVTs can lead to poor LV function
Slide 19-

SVT Diagnosis&Treatment My experience SHO: 2 cases newborn from postnatal ward Asymptomatic Ice packs on the face, Digoxin SHO: 8 week old baby: Pale, poor feeding Dipping the face in ice water Baptism treatment for SVT
