Abstract
The clinician must recognize that the Epstein-Barr virus can affect the conduction system of the heart. Therefore, children with infectious mononucleosis who develop bradycardia or hypotension deserve careful cardiac evaluation, including serial ECGs. Pacemaker therapy may be necessary in the treatment of life-threatening bradyarrhymias.
