Neonatal arrhythmias have an incidence of 0.37% in the NICU setting, with SVT and PACs being the most common presentations, often associated with fetal arrhythmias or congenital heart malformations.
Işık et al. (2015) conducted an observational in Neonatal arrhythmias (n=17). Neonatal arrhythmias was evaluated on Incidence and distribution of neonatal arrhythmias.
