IntroductionFocal atrial tachycardia (FAT) is predominant in the pediatric population. A 12-lead electrocardiogram revealed a narrow QRS complex tachycardia with a rate of 157 beats per minute and a prolonged RP relationship. Echocardiography indicated a severely reduced ejection fraction of 22%.

Otherwise vitals after intubation were only notable for tachycardia. An initial EKG was obtained: Computer read: sinus tachycardia, early acute anterior infarct. Pediatric and elderly patients were more predisposed to developing an arrhythmic event in the setting of fever [7]. A rectal temperature was obtained which read 107.9

There is sinus tachycardia and also a large R-wave in aVR. Drug toxicity , especially diphenhydramine , which has sodium channel blocking effects, and also anticholinergic effects which may result in sinus tachycardia, hyperthermia, delirium, and dry skin. Her temperature was 106 degrees. As part of the workup, she underwent an ECG.
