Recently my 12 year old daughter has been experiencing a pulse rate in the range of 100 to 130 bpm, and was diagnosed with ectopic atrial tachycardia.  What is the normal treatment for this condition, and is this a serious condition?  This diagnoses was made by a pediatric cardiologist.  Any information would be helpful.




I have heard that there is an excellent pediatric EP Specialist out of Children's Hospital in San Diego by the name of Jim Perry.  Hope this helps.
