Abstract
RIVERA-RODRIGUEZ, Leonardo. Diagnosis of Tachycardias in the Pediatric Patients. Arch. Cardiol. Méx. [online]. 2009, vol.79, suppl.2, pp.31-36. ISSN 1665-1731.
Arrythmias in the pediatric patient usually are considered rare; nonetheless, their number is increasing. The paroxistic supraventricular tachycardia is the most frequent symptomatic arrhythmia. The diagnosis is based on electrocardiographic register. There are few diagnostic tools including the Holter monitoring and loop recorders. Once the tachychardia is detected, a deductive electrocardiographic diagnosis and specific treatment are established.
