Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia in children: A multicenter experience
Original language description
BACKGROUND Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia (PJRT) is an uncommon form of supraventricular tachycardia in children. Treatment of this arrhythmia has been considered difficult because of a high medication failure rate and risk of cardiomyopathy. Outcomes in the current era of interventional treatment with catheter ablation have not been published. OBJECTIVE To describe the presentation and PJRT in children. METHODS This is a retrospective review of 194 pediatric patients with PJRT managed at 11 institutions between January 2000 and December 2010. RESULTS The median age at diagnosis was 3.2 months, including 110 infants (57%; aged <1 year). PJRT was incessant in 47%. The ratio of RP interval to cycle length was higher with incessant than with nonincessant tachycardia. Tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy was observed in 18%. Antiarrhythmic medications were used for initial management in 76%, while catheter ablation was used initially in only 10%. Medications achieved complete
