Recent developments in the management of pediatric arrhythmias include advances in genetics, pharmacological strategies, and radiofrequency ablation, alongside ongoing risk stratification challenges.
This review highlights the significant improvements in diagnosis and therapy for pediatric arrhythmias over the last 20 years, while identifying ongoing challenges in risk stratification.
Knowledge about cardiac arrhythmias has significantly improved in the last 20 years, and the improvements in diagnosis and in therapy have also had important effects on the management of pediatric arrhythmias. In this paper, the most important developments in the field of management of pediatric arrhythmias (fetal arrhythmias, genetics, pharmacological strategies, radiofrequency ablation, new technologies) as well as the remaining problems (risk stratification of some arrhythmic forms as for example Wolff-Parkinson-White and ventricular arrhythmias) will be discussed.
