Video Summary
Bradley Clark, Director of Pediatric Electrophysiology at the Children's Hospital of Montefiore, discusses pediatric electrophysiologic abnormalities related to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. These abnormalities have been rare and are typically associated with acute COVID-19 infection or multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). Some reported abnormalities include conduction abnormalities, abnormal rhythms, and ventricular tachycardia. Interestingly, pediatric patients have not been observed to have atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter related to severe infection like adults. Fevers associated with COVID-19 or MIS-C have led to the diagnosis of Brugada syndrome in some cases. Monitoring and follow-up testing may be necessary to assess these abnormalities.
