THE WOLFF-PARKINSON-WHITE SYNDROME IN AN INFANT

Pediatrics, 1948
A case of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome in an infant 4½ months of age with electrocardiographic findings suggestive of several congenital accessory conduction pathways is presented. The age of the patient and the findings lend support to the hypothesis that this syndrome is congenital in origin.

Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome in Athletes

Current Sports Medicine Reports, 2006
Introduction Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a congenital abnormality that involves an accessory pathway between the atria and the ventricles in addition to the normal atrioventricular node-His pathway. This extra pathway can conduct electrical impulses to the ventricles more quickly and can cause pre-excitation arrhythmias to occur [1].

Flecainide in the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1992
The effects of flecainide on electrophysiologic parameters and arrhythmias in the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome were reviewed. Acute administration of flecainide blocks conduction across the accessory pathway in the anterograde direction in 40% and in the retrograde direction in 50% of cases and markedly prolongs refractoriness in the remaining cases.

Arrhythmias in the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 1966
Summary The incidence of the WPW anomaly in adults ranges from 0.1 to 3.1 per thousand and in children from 0.77 to 4.8 per thousand. Acquired heart disease as well as many congenital cardiac defects are associated with the WPW anomaly. Sixty to 70 per cent of patients demonstrating this pattern are males.

The Patient with Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 1994
Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is characterized by a classic ECG pattern and a history of palpitations, syncope, pre-syncope, or tachyarrhythmias. An electrophysiology study is an integral part of the diagnosis and treatment of this disease, and with the advent of catheter ablative techniques, WPW syndrome is now considered a curable disease.

Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome

Dimensions of Critical Care Nursing, 1990
Some patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome have potentially life-threatening arrhythmias. Symptomatic WPW is associated with tachycardias that are supraventricular in origin. Discharge teaching after surgical correction of WPW is critical to restoring the patient's previous life-style.

Latent Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome

American Heart Journal, 1953
Abstract Two cases are presented which show presumptive evidence that the mechanism producing the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome may lie dormant for considerable periods of time. The observations reported may be of importance in ultimately explaining this phenomenon.
