Arrhythmias in Children | Dr. Supratim Sen

Показать описание

An arrhythmia is any change in the regular, even rhythm of the heartbeat. If your child has an arrhythmia, his or her heart might beat too fast or too slow, or it might skip a beat or have extra beats. The doctor may do a test called an electrocardiogram (ECG), which records the heartbeat, to see if it is beating regularly.

Dr. Supratim Sen, Senior Consultant - Paediatric Cardiology at SRCC Children's Hospital, Mumbai talks in detail about Arrhythmias in Children.
