What is a dangerous heart rate for a 6 yo girl?

depends on what she%26#039;s been doing for the last bit. sitting on the couch resting - i%26#039;d say about 140-160 is a little fast. running around playing, maybe 180 is fast. dangerously fast though, i would say over 200-220. if you%26#039;re worried about something call your dr and check with them....

By the rule at heart rate of 160 or above; some hearts will stop being efficient pumps. That is will not pump enough to keep you conscious.



But like all things biological wide variations do occur.



Yet if my 6 y.o. heart rate went 155, I%26#039;d take her to get checked out quickly.

For resting - a rate of no more than 150 BPM, however, if the child is active or moving about, then a rate of 215 would be the highest it should go.

If she has a fever expect a high rate. 120-160. 180-200 then we are talking about maybe a treatable SVT. I have given adenocard to a 6 year old girl before. That is a med to slow a HR and break them into a normal rhythm. Do give that to a child though is pretty rare. Usually all rapid heart rates in kids are caused by fever, dehydration, or both.
