Background: Loop recorder implants may have value in pediatric patients; however, size limitations exist due to the risk of erosion.
Methods: Retrospective review of five patients who underwent subscapular loop recorder implantation were reviewed.
Results: No complications occurred. Stable R-waves were noted but could be positional but with adequate diagnostics provided.
Conclusion: Subscapular loop recorder implantation is feasible in patients as young as 3 months of age.
