Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to collect information about how often an abnormal heart beat happens in children who have been burned.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The investigators hope to learn the following:

* If heart arrhythmias are more common in children with a large burn injury than in children with a small burn injury.
* The difference in development of a heart arrhythmia after a large burn injury by comparing information from children with large burns who do and do not develop a heart arrhythmia.
* A better understanding of the length of a hospital stay, the number of operations, and the number of care complications in patients with heart arrhythmias after a burn injury.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

≥30% TBSA burn injury

For patients in Group 1 with ≥30% TBSA, a baseline Echocardiogram (ECHO) will be obtained approximately one week from admission and monthly (+/- 1 week) or at an interval determined by cardiology during the acute inpatient stay. ECHO tests will be discontinued after 3 negative exams or when discontinued by cardiology, whichever comes first.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Echocardiogram

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

A baseline Echocardiogram test (ECHO) will be done one week from admission and monthly (+/- 1 week) or as ordered by a cardiologist.

<30% TBSA burn injury

For patients in Group 2 with \<30% TBSA and presence of a cardiac abnormality standard clinical care appropriate for the type of arrhythmia will be followed.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

Pediatric burn patients from age 0 - 18 who have sustained a burn injury will be eligible for this study.

Group 1 will consist of patients with ≥30% TBSA burn injury. Group 2 will consist of patients with \<30% TBSA burn injury who develop a cardiac abnormality.
