2023年12月13日 · Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a heart condition present at birth. That means it's a congenital heart defect. People with WPW syndrome have an extra pathway for signals to travel between the heart's upper and lower chambers. This causes a fast heartbeat.

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.

Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome (WPWS) is a disorder due to a specific type of problem with the electrical system of the heart involving an accessory pathway able to conduct electrical current between the atria and the ventricles, thus bypassing the atrioventricular node. [2][3] About 60% of people with the electrical problem developed symptoms, ...

Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW) is a type of abnormal heartbeat. If you have WPW, you may have episodes of tachycardia, when your heart beats very rapidly.

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.

2022年3月24日 · Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a conduction disorder that can make your heart beat too quickly or with an irregular rhythm. Learn about the causes, symptoms, and treatments for WPW syndrome.

2023年12月13日 · For WPW syndrome, some basic questions to ask your healthcare team include: What is the likely cause of my fast heart rate? What tests do I need? What treatments can help? What are the risks of WPW syndrome? How often will I need follow-up appointments? Do I need to avoid any activities?

2025年2月1日 · An unknown number of people are born with single or multiple accessory electrical pathways between the atria and the ventricles. Although most people who have an accessory pathway never experience any problems, some show characteristic abnormalities on surface electrocardiography (the Wolff-Parkinson-White [WPW] pattern), and a minority of …

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.

2024年12月4日 · Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a rare condition that causes an irregular heart rhythm (arrhythmia). With WPW syndrome, your heart may beat unusually fast.
