This is why children's heart beats too fast

As we all know, a fast heartbeat is very harmful to people's health. Only by finding the cause and treating the symptoms can we avoid worsening of the disease. But what are the reasons for children's rapid heartbeat? Most mothers are not very clear about this. In fact, the main reason for children's rapid heartbeat is that the excitability of their hearts is relatively high.

1 heartbeat, every time the heart beats, the left ventricle ejects blood into the aorta. Blood is transported to all parts of the body through the aorta for blood circulation, removing carbon dioxide and waste from the body, and inputting oxygen and nutrients to ensure the body's metabolism. Since children's hearts are more excitable, the younger they are, the faster their heartbeats. And when the activity increases, they cry, are nervous, and have a fever, their heartbeats will also increase. It is normal for children to have a fast heartbeat, and it is normal for children to have a heartbeat of over 100.

2 Generally speaking, the normal range of a child's heart rate is: 80-140 beats/minute for children under 1 year old; 80-120 beats/minute for children aged 1-6 years old; 60-100 beats/minute for children over 6 years old. However, the above frequencies should be in a quiet state. If the child is active or participates in physical exercise, the heart rate can be significantly faster. Children are in the period of growth and development and need a lot of oxygen and nutrients. The more they need, the more waste they excrete. In this way, the heart needs to beat faster so that the blood can flow faster, bring more oxygen and nutrients into the body, and transport useless waste out of the body faster. The heart rate of a child is inherently faster than that of an adult, and sometimes it depends on the situation she is in.

3 Children move more frequently than adults . If she is an active child and looks healthy, then there should be no major problems. You can let her stay stable for a few minutes, such as before going to bed, and measure her heartbeat. If her heartbeat is unstable under stable conditions, then it is recommended that you take her to the hospital. In addition, fever and viral infection will cause a fast heartbeat, but as long as she recovers quickly, there is no problem.

4 After understanding what causes children's tachycardia , when alleviating the condition, you should do so based on the child's physical condition. And it should be noted that if the child's tachycardia is severe, hospitalization is required. This will help alleviate the child's physical problems. Parents should know this.
