Junctional ectopic tachycardia (JET) is a rare syndrome of the heart that manifests in patients recovering from heart surgery. It is characterized by cardiac arrhythmia or irregular beating of the heart caused by abnormal conduction from or through the atrioventricular node (AV node). In newborns and infants up to 6 weeks old the disease may also be referred to as His bundle tachycardia.
