Detecting fast heart rhythms in children with a smart device
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if a smart device can accurately detect supraventricular tachycardia (a fast heart rhythm) in children aged 0-10. It aims to create a better way to identify these episodes, which could lead to quicker treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 0 and 10 years old.
- Your child is being treated at Tyks Lighthouse hospital pediatric wards.
- Both parents or guardians have given permission for your child to join.
- Your child has been diagnosed with or is suspected of having supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), a fast heart rhythm.
- Your child has not been diagnosed with SVT (for the control group).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests if smartphones and their accessories can detect a specific type of irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation. If you have a form of atrial fibrillation or a normal heart rhythm, you may help see how well these devices work.
This trial tests a chest belt that works with your smartphone to track heart rhythms. It may help if you have or might have an irregular heartbeat.
This trial tests whether a smartphone app can detect when your heart rhythm normalizes after a procedure called electrical cardioversion. It aims to make monitoring easier and more convenient for patients.
This study tests whether a smartphone camera can detect an irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) by measuring blood flow through your fingertip. If it works, it could make checking your heart rhythm easier at home.
This trial tests whether starting treatment early to control your heart's rhythm can help people with a heart device who have short bursts of a fast heartbeat (called atrial high rate episodes) but haven't yet been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation on a standard EKG or Holter monitor.
This study looks at how children with supraventricular tachycardia (a fast heart rhythm starting in the upper chambers) do during their hospital stay. It aims to help doctors understand the best ways to manage this condition.
