This innovative new reference: Covers the full range of arrhythmias encountered in pediatric patients Presents each arrhythmia – from identification to management options – as well as showing how to make a precise non-invasive diagnosis from the ECG Makes use of real ECG strips – not perfect redrawn examples – to show what readers will actually encounter in the clinical setting In addition, the book discusses arrhythmias encountered in various clinical settings – early and late after operation, and in congenital heart disease or cardiomyopathy – as well as brief overview of the use of invasive EP studies, catheter ablation, pacemakers and defibrillators. Whereas other books on this important topic are aimed and tailored for the needs of experts in pediatric cardiology, this book is ideal for pediatricians, pediatric intensivists, trainees in pediatrics, pediatric cardiology and pediatric intensive care, as well as for clinical support staff involved in the cardiac care of children; Common terms and phrases: 12-lead ECG abnormalities accessory pathway adenosine adults amiodarone antiarrhythmic drugs arteries atrial fibrillation atrial flutter atrial premature beats atriofascicular re-entry tachycardia atrium AVRT B-blocker black arrows bradycardia Brugada syndrome bundle branch block cardiac catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular catheter ablation cause Circulation clinical common complete AV block congenital heart disease defibrillator differential diagnosis dose drug treatment early postoperative ECG in Figure Electrophysiol electrophysiology electrophysiology study example in Figure flecainide heart rate incessant intravenous junctional ectopic tachycardia LBBB lead V1 left bundle branch long QT syndrome LQTS mglkg morphology neonate normal QRS pacing patients pediatric permanent junctional reciprocating polymorphic ventricular tachycardia PR interval QRS complexes rare RBBB red arrows rhythm strip right bundle branch risk shows sinus rhythm sinus tachycardia sudden death supraventricular tachycardia symptoms syncope tachycardia in children tachycardia see Chapter tetralogy of Fallot usually ventricle ventricular fibrillation ventricular function ventricular premature beats ventricular rate wide QRS Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome ER -
