2023年12月13日 · Treatment for Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome depends on: How often symptoms occur. How severe the symptoms are. The type of irregular heartbeat causing the fast heart rate. People who have an extra signaling pathway but no symptoms, called WPW pattern, usually don't need treatment. The goals of WPW syndrome treatment are to:

2023年10月23日 · Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is a heart condition that can make your heart beat faster than it should. When you’re born with WPW, your heartbeat signal can use an extra pathway instead of the usual one. Medication or procedures can treat or even cure Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.

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 …

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.

For patients with WPW syndrome who have a documented tachycardia, treatment is recommended. The first approach to treatment is catheter ablation, a minimally invasive procedure that has a high rate of cure (greater than 96%) and a very small risk of complications (less than 0.5%).

2023年12月13日 · Treatment of WPW syndrome may include special actions, medicines, a shock to the heart or a procedure to stop the irregular heartbeats. The heart rate is the number of times the heart beats each minute. A fast heart rate is called tachycardia (tak-ih-KAHR-dee-uh).

2024年5月15日 · WOLFF-PARKINSON-WHITE TREATMENT. Most people with the WPW pattern on ECG who do not experience tachycardia do not need treatment. These people may never develop symptoms, and in some young people, conduction via the accessory pathway spontaneously disappears as the person grows older.

2024年12月4日 · Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is a type of congenital heart arrhythmia. Its severity can vary, but regular monitoring and sometimes treatment are important in preventing complications....

Living with Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome. Treatment like radiofrequency ablation often solves the problem. If not, your child’s provider may recommend managing symptoms with vagal maneuvers, and/or medications.

Treatment of Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW)-associated arrhythmias is directed at the underlying cause (through the use of radiofrequency [RF] ablation of the accessory pathway [AP],...
