Abstract
CRESPO MARCOS, D. and PEREZ-LESCURE PICARZO, F.J.. Clinical cases in Cardiology (no 6): a ten years old child with arrhythmic auscultation. Rev Pediatr Aten Primaria [online]. 2010, vol.12, n.47, pp.437-441. ISSN 1139-7632.
We continue the series of clinical cases in Pediatric Cardiology checking reasons for consultation in the pediatric offices of Primary Care as well as exploratory signs, and presenting them in a brief and practical way. In this paper we present the case of a 10 years old boy to whom an arrhythmic cardiac auscultation is found in the context of an abdominal pain. The electrocardiographic interpretation and the way the child is managed is discussed.
