Ventricular fibrillation in the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.

European Heart Journal, 1991
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a well-known but rare complication of the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW). Clinical and electrophysiological data of 23 patients with spontaneous VF were compared with data from 100 consecutive patients with WPW ...

The Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1969
Excerpt In a very real sense one may look on the Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome as the Rosetta stone of electrocardiography, since a full understanding of all its features and their possible ...

The Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome

New England Journal of Medicine, 1946
TO THOSE with extensive electrocardiographic experience, especially if it includes a large proportion of young adults, the finding of the pattern of a short PR interval and a prolonged QRS complex comes as no great surprise. That it is not a rare occurrence, as might be concluded from the many papers in the literature reporting one or two cases, needs ...

Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome in Infants

Neonatal Network, 2010
Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a ventricular preexcitation that presents as supraventricular tachycardia. Health care professionals can attain optimal results in caring for infants with WPW syndrome by understanding both its pathophysiology and proper management to prevent and treat complications associated with it.

Familial Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome

Journal of Electrocardiology, 1982
Familial occurrence of Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is uncommon and to date only seven instances have been documented in the literature. We describe another unusual family in which the proband, his father and two of his five brothers (including one who died suddenly) showed WPW conduction.

Development and Validation of an ECG Algorithm for Identifying Accessory Pathway Ablation Site in Wolff‐Parkinson‐White Syndrome

Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 1998
ECG Localization of Accessory AV Pathways. Introduction: Delta wave morphology correlates with the site of ventricular insertion of accessory AV pathways. Because lesions due to radiofrequency (RF) current are small and well defined, it may allow precise

History of Wolff‐Parkinson‐White Syndrome [PDF]

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2005
While Drs. Wolff, Parkinson, and White fully described the syndrome that bears their names in 1930, prior case reports had already described the essentials. Over the ensuing century this syndrome has captivated the interest of anatomists, clinical cardiologists, and cardiac surgeons.

Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome

AACN Advanced Critical Care, 1992
Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a cardiac conduction disorder that presents with potentially life-threatening consequences. Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome-induced dysrhythmias account for 20% of all supraventricular tachycardias that occur in the general population. Clinical presentations range from no symptoms to a sudden cardiac arrest.

THE PROGNOSIS OF THE WOLFF-PARKINSON-WHITE SYNDROME

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1947
Excerpt Many authors, including Wolff, Parkinson and White,1consider the prognosis of the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (characterized by White et al.1essentially as: (1) a short P-R interval, (2)...

Transvenous catheter ablation of a posteroseptal accessory pathway in a patient with the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1984
WE have described a technique of closed-chest catheter ablation of the atrioventricular junction by electrocoagulation in dogs.1 We and others have used this technique in patients with supraventricular tachycardia refractory to pharmacologic therapy and ...
