2025年3月17日 · Classic Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome EKG shows the electrocardiographic signs of pre-excitation. As the stimulus originates from the sinus node, the P wave will be normal. In pre-excitation, ventricles depolarize from two different points: bundle of …

Classic (manifest) Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is due to an accessory atrioventricular connection that produces a prototypical ECG consisting of a short PR interval, a wide QRS complex with an initial slurred component (delta wave), and secondary repolarization changes in association with symptomatic reentrant (paroxysmal) supraventricular ta...

2024年10月8日 · Pre-excitation refers to early activation of the ventricles due to impulses bypassing the AV node via an AP. Also known as bypass tracts, APs are abnormal conduction pathways formed during cardiac development and can exist in a variety of anatomical locations and in some patients there may be multiple pathways.

2023年8月7日 · Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a congenital cardiac preexcitation syndrome that arises from abnormal cardiac electrical conduction through an accessory pathway that can result in symptomatic and life-threatening arrhythmias.

The diagnosis of WPW occurs with a combination of palpitations and when an electrocardiogram (ECG) show a short PR interval and a delta wave. [3] . It is a type of pre-excitation syndrome. [3] WPW syndrome may be monitored or treated with either medications or an ablation (destroying the tissues) such as with radiofrequency catheter ablation. [4] .

2023年10月23日 · Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW) is a heart condition that occurs in people born with an extra electrical pathway for heartbeat signals. When electrical impulses or signals take this extra route instead of the usual one, they travel through your heart too quickly.

2015年6月29日 · Localization of the accessory pathway using the 12-lead ECG. With the advent of radiofrequency ablation for the treatment of tachyarrhythmias associated with WPW, it became important to precisely localize the site of the accessory pathway.

2024年12月4日 · Like other types of heart arrhythmias, doctors primarily diagnose WPW syndrome with an electrocardiogram (EKG) along with your history of symptoms. An EKG records your heart’s electrical...

2023年5月11日 · Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is a specific type of abnormality of the electrical system of the heart. This syndrome causes a specific pattern on an electrocardiogram (Wolff-Parkinson-White pattern) and is linked to an episode of rapid heart rates, such as supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) or atrial fibrillation.

Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a condition in which there is an extra electrical pathway in the heart that leads to periods of rapid heart rate (tachycardia). WPW syndrome is one of the most common causes of fast heart rate problems in infants and children. Normally, electrical signals follow a certain pathway through the heart.
