Objective:

To describe the clinical spectrum of pediatric arrhythmias, identify independent risk factors, and assess treatment effectiveness and safety in a multicenter cohort from Xinjiang.

Key Findings:
  • 232 children with arrhythmia were enrolled, with a mean age of 11.5 years; 68.9% were ≥6 years.
  • Supraventricular arrhythmias were most common (49.1%), with PSVT accounting for 35.3%.
  • Independent risk factors identified included congenital heart disease (OR 7.265), recent infection exposure (OR 6.452), and recurrent arrhythmia history (OR 8.216).
  • Management included follow-up (65.5%), pharmacotherapy (25.0%), and ablation (9.5%).
  • Ablation in 22 PSVT patients achieved 100% acute success with no recurrence over 6–12 months.
Interpretation:

Remove unsupported conclusions and rephrase to reflect findings without editorial interpretation.

Limitations:
  • The study is retrospective and may be subject to selection bias.
  • Limited access to advanced monitoring and treatment options across participating centers.
Conclusion:

Revise to eliminate recommendations and focus solely on the study's findings.
