See [paediatric ECG RCG](https://www.rch.org.au/clinicalguide/guideline_index/Basic_Paediatric_ECG_interpretation/)
**6 differences btwn adult and paediatric ECG**
- HR >100
- Rightward QRS axis
- T wave inversion in v1-v2 (juvenile t-wave pattern)
- dominant R in v1
- RSR' in V1
- short pr interval <120ms and QRS duration (<80ms)
- slightly peaked P waves
- slightly long QTc
**Things to look for**
- [[Syncope ECG patterns#Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy|HCM]] (only HOCM if ovstruction of outflow tract → collapse on exertion)
- apical HCM (widespread lateral T waves, more common japan and korea)
- Dagger-like because of *septal hypertrophy*
- [[Syncope ECG patterns#ARVC]] → differentiate epsilon wave from J wave by *epsilon comes off qrs complex*, j wave is separate
- [[Syncope ECG patterns#Brugada]] → can be unmasked by fever. Low threshold to admit kids with fever who have brugada
- [[Syncope ECG patterns#WPW]] → see [[SVT paeds]]
- [[Syncope ECG patterns#Long QT]]
