This chapter reviews developmental clinical cardiac electrophysiology, the spectrum of tachycardias, and arrhythmias following surgery for congenital heart disease in children.
This chapter reviews developmental clinical cardiac electrophysiology and the management of arrhythmias in children, including those with congenital heart disease.
Recent interest in cardiac arrhythmias in children has been stimulated by a growing awareness of primary rhythm disorders in children, by the appearance of rhythm disorders following repair of many congenital heart defects, and by recent developments in clinical electrophysiology. This chapter focuses on developmental clinical cardiac electrophysiology, the spectrum of tachycardias in children, and the frequency, mechanism, and therapeutic decisions regarding cardiac arrhythmias in children who have had surgery for congenital heart disease.
Campbell et al. (Wed,) conducted a review in Cardiac arrhythmias. This chapter reviews developmental clinical cardiac electrophysiology, the spectrum of tachycardias, and arrhythmias following surgery for congenital heart disease in children.
