Go to ER: Even though babies may tolerate supra-ventricular tachycardia at rates above 240bpm for many hours it is imperative that he or she is seen at an er asap where they can obtain an ECG and give him medication by vein that will restore his hr to normal. The baby will most likely be started on daily medication after that and you should definitely follow-up with a pediatric cardiologist.

Immediate evaluation: If your baby indeed has supraventricular tachycardia, it requires the immediate services of a pediatric cardiologist (children's heart specialist) to determine the exact cause and institute prompt treatment. Go see a doctor now.
