Abstract
To identify the risk of life-threatening heart rhythm disturbances in children in the age group of one year of life, 50 conditionally healthy children at the time of the study were examined. They were divided into 2 groups: 1 group (31 children): children born through the natural birth canal and 2 group – 19 children born using abdominal delivery. The risk of developing various life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias were determined by measuring the index of «electric quality of the heart» according to ECG analysis. As a result of the study, in children of the 1st group, sinus arrhythmia (74 % of children) was most frequently registered, sinus tachycardia (32 %) and sinus bradycardia (26 %) were less common. In the second group ofthe examined patients, sinus arrhythmia was registered in 100 % of cases, sinus bradycardia in 57,9 %, out of which 10 % had pronounced (<5 ‰), sinus tachycardia in 42,1 % of children. We found out that there were no significant differences in the risk of developing life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias according to ECG data in children, depending on the circumstances of the birth. In all the examined children, by determining the index of «electric quality of the heart», the risk of developing heart rhythm disturbance was established, and it was higher in children born from surgical labor: every third child was found to have an average or high risk of developing life-threatening rhythm disturbances.
