What is the normal range of pulse for children?

Nowadays, most children are only children and are basically the treasures of the family. Therefore, the health of children becomes the most concerned issue for parents. Since internal organs are relatively important organs, many parents are concerned about the normal range of their children's pulse and worry that abnormal situations may occur. So, what is the normal range of children's pulse? Let's take a closer look below.

Newborn's breathing: 40-50 times/min Pulse: 120-140 times/min

Under 1 year old Respiration: 30-40 times/min Pulse: 110-130 times/min

2-3 years old Respiration: 25-30 times/min Pulse: 100-120 times/min

4-7 years old Respiration: 20-25 times/min Pulse: 80-100 times/min

8-12 years old Respiration: 18-20 times/min Pulse: 70-90 times/min

Changes in heart rate are also related to many factors such as eating, exercise, mood, sleep, and fever. A fast heart rate only makes sense when you are in a quiet state.

If the heart rate is also faster, and sometimes there is chest tightness and shortness of breath, "if it is not related to rest, mood, etc., and the heart rate is still fast after rest or in sleep, you should go to the hospital for an electrocardiogram and myocardial enzyme spectrum examination.

Children's heart rate is faster, which is mainly related to their vigorous metabolism and high sympathetic nerve excitability. Children aged 8-14 have a heart rate of 70-90 beats per minute. Children's pulse rate is unstable and is easily affected by various internal and external factors, such as eating, activity, crying, fever, etc. Therefore, children's pulse should be measured when they are at rest. If the pulse increases significantly and does not slow down during sleep, organic heart disease should be suspected. Go to the hospital for a comprehensive checkup

"Sinus arrhythmia" is a normal physiological phenomenon, not a disease. "Sinus arrhythmia" is most common in children and adolescents, but it is also not uncommon in adults.

The above is an introduction to the normal range of children’s pulse. I hope it will be helpful to parents. The normal range of children's pulse is generally fixed. If any abnormality occurs, there must be something wrong with the child's health. It is necessary to go to a regular hospital for treatment in time to avoid causing more serious harm to the child.
