ABSTRACT
Capillary refill time (CRT) is a valuable clinical sign in pediatric assessment, particularly in evaluating circulatory status. We present a case of a one-month-old infant with supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), who demonstrated prolonged CRT, emphasizing the importance of this physical examination finding in the context of other signs of compromised circulation.
