Approach to Pediatric Tachycardia. Tachycardia is an abnormally rapid heart rate. In adults, this is usually defined as >100 beats per minute (bpm). In pediatrics, the normal heart rate varies with age (see Table 1). Therefore, in children, the definition of tachycardia is age dependent. Presentation varies with underlying cause, but most often the symptoms are vague and non-specific, such as âfussinessâ or âdifficulty feedingâ.
