Detecting fast heart rhythms in children
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is testing a new way to detect a specific type of fast heart rhythm (called supraventricular tachycardia or SVT) in children. It may help improve how doctors find and monitor this condition in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is aged 0 to 10 years
- Your child is being treated at the Tyks Lighthouse hospital pediatric ward
- Your child has been diagnosed with or is suspected to have supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) for the study group, OR your child does not have SVT for the control group
- Both parents or guardians must give permission (informed consent)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a treatment for supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), a condition where the heart beats too fast. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and works well in children.
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 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 tests whether a smartphone app (FibriCheck) can accurately track heart rhythm recovery after a cardioversion procedure. If you join, you will use the app at home to measure your heart rhythm, which may reduce the need for frequent clinic visits.
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.
