Atrial flutter is the atrial confined tachycardia more frequent in the neonatal age, its adequate treatment requires an early diagnosis. The possibility of presenting adverse effects with antiarrhythmic drugs in newborns is high, so the empirical management of tachycardia should be avoided in this age group. We present the case of a newborn with atrial flutter in healthy heart, who responded favorably to conventional pharmacological measures, with good evolution in the medium term.

Keywords : atrial flutter; tachycardia; pediatrics.
