Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome-----------Definition

outside the Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome, and related to the existence of intranodal reentry circuit.
Etiology
In the vast majority of cases the disease is isolated Bouveret. It appears most often in patients
youth with a healthy heart.

occurring every year or less and the occurrence of crises with multi-day impact mental
major. Generally seizure frequency increases with age. Emotional factors have a large
influence.
Electrocardiographic appearance
a) Outside of paroxysmal tachycardia of access, the electrocardiogram is normal.

What are the other Names for this Condition? (Also known as/Synonyms) Preexcitation Syndrome WPW Syndrome  What is Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome? (Definition/Background Information) Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome (or WPW Syndrome) is a congenital condition that affects the heart. The condition arises due to a disruption in the process of how the message (signal that causes the heart to beat) gets passed within the heart As a result of this condition, the heart beats faster than normal, since the condition changes the normal physiology of the heart The heart is composed of three segments that make up the electrical system, which is how the information gets transferred. These segments include the sinoatrial node, atrioventricular node, and His Purkinje system The sinoatrial node is the most important segment of the 3, whose function is to initiate the signal The atrioventricular node allows the signal that is produced by the sinoatrial node to be distributed to ...
