Treatment of sinus rhythm in children

Many people only think that some adults will suffer from heart diseases, but they don’t know that many children will suffer from heart diseases from childhood. There are many reasons for heart diseases. If it is a child, it is usually caused by congenital factors. Many children will be diagnosed with heart diseases after birth. There are many types of heart diseases, and there is also a type called sinus rhythm. So how should children with sinus rhythm disease be treated?

reason

1. Sinus bradycardia is generally asymptomatic if the heart rate is not less than 50 beats per minute.

2. If the heart rate is lower than 40 beats per minute, it may often cause symptoms such as angina pectoris, heart failure or syncope.

Sinus rhythm signs

Sinus rhythm is more common in normal people, presenting as short bursts, and will turn into sinus rhythm when the sinus rate accelerates. The clinical significance is the same as escape rhythm. Some people believe that it is more common in patients with venous malformations such as persistent left superior vena cava and absent inferior vena cava.

treat

1. Sinus bradycardia, if the heart rate is not less than 50 beats per minute and there are no symptoms, does not require treatment.

2. If the heart rate is lower than 40 beats per minute and symptoms occur, drugs to increase the heart rate (such as atropine, ephedrine, or isoproterenol) can be used.

3. Patients with significant sinus bradycardia accompanied by sinus arrest and syncope may consider installing an artificial pacemaker.

4. Treatment of primary disease.

5. Symptomatic and supportive treatment.

Medication principles

1. For most patients, symptoms will disappear after the cause or trigger is eliminated.

2. Active treatment should be given when there is a clear primary disease.
