                            <p>Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the pediatric cardiology consultations requested in the general pediatric admissions.Material and Methods: All pediatric cardiology consultations performed for children under the age of 16 were included in the study. Patients with a history of known heart disease were excluded. The indication for consultations, physical examination findings, ECG, and echocardiographic examination results were evaluated. Results: During the study period, 480 consultations were performed. The median age at the time of evaluation was 36 months (range 1 day - 13.3 years. Among them, 52% were male (n=250). The most common basis for cardiology consultation were murmur in 53% of the patients, chest pain in 18 %, and palpitation in 8%. Physical examination revealed murmur in 38% of patients and additional pathological findings in 10%.Arrhythmia was detected in 12% (n=58) of patients. The most common ECG abnormalities were pathological QRS-T angle in 27 cases, right axis deviation in 25, and left axis deviation in 23. There was a statistically significant difference in the presence of pathological physical examination findings and ECG results (p</p></trans-abstract>

En sık yönlendirilme nedenleri; fizik muayenede patoloji varlığı, EKG değişiklikleri ve ekokardiyografide patoloji varlığı araştırıldı. Sonuçlar istatistiksel olarak değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Çalışma döneminde 480 olgu mevcuttu. Olguların yüzde %52’si erkek(n=250) ve ortanca yaş 36 ay (1 gün  -13.3 yıl) idi. Olguların çocuk kardiyolojiye en sık yönlendirilme nedenleri %53 olguda üfürüm,%18 olguda göğüs ağrısı ve %8 olguda çarpıntı şeklindeydi. Yapılan kardiyovasküler sistem fizik muayenesinde % 38 olguda üfürüm ve %10 olguda diğer patolojik bulgular görüldü.Çekilen EKG’de %12 (n=58) olguda EKG anormallikleri saptandı. En sık gözlenen EKG anormallikleri 27 olguda patolojik QRS-T açısı, 25 olguda sağ aks deviasyonu ve 23 olguda sol aks deviasyonu şeklindeydi.Fizik muayene patoloji sonuçları ile elektrokardiyografi sonuçları istatistiksel olarak farklılıklar göstermekteydi (p</p></abstract>
