Abstract

Unlabelled: Supraventricular tachycardias are a cause of significant morbidity in children. Newer anti-arrhythmic drugs and the invention of radiofrequency catheter ablation have revolutionised anti-arrhythmic therapy in children.

Conclusion: With the availability of these very effective therapeutic options, an improved knowledge of these methods and their indications is required.
