HERAS SANCHEZ, E.  y  PEREZ-LESCURE PICARZO, F. J.. Clinical cases in Cardiology (No. 13): differential diagnosis of wide QRS tachycardia: a case report. Rev Pediatr Aten Primaria [online]. 2014, vol.16, n.63, pp.231-235. ISSN 1139-7632.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S1139-76322014000400009.

We continue the series of clinical cases in Pediatric Cardiology by reviewing reasons for consultation in Primary Care and exploratory data, presented briefly and practically. In this issue a cardiological emergency occurs in the health center. It is a seven year old boy who presented with sudden onset palpitations. We discuss how the history, examination, and electrocardiographic findings point us to the origin of tachycardia, which in turn will influence the patient's treatment.

Palabras clave : Supraventricular tachycardia; Ventricular tachycardia; Palpitations; Cardioversion.
