Implication

Describes NA patterns in Indian NICUs; leaves open need for prospective data before changing monitoring or management.

Structured PICO

P
Population
42 neonates diagnosed with neonatal arrhythmias (NAs) out of 6,253 admissions in 4 neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), median gestational age 36 weeks, 66.67% female.
O
Outcome
Incidence, types, and implications of neonatal arrhythmias

Neonatal arrhythmias occur in 0.67% of NICU admissions, with a significant proportion associated with congenital heart disease, emphasizing the importance of early detection and management.

Limitations

  • Did not perform a 12-lead electrocardiogram in the general nursery population, which may limit detection of asymptomatic neonatal arrhythmias.
