Wolff-Parkinson-White
syndrome is a heart condition in which there is an abnormal
extra electrical pathway of the heart. The condition can lead to episodes
of rapid heart rate (tachycardia).
Wolff-Parkinson-White
syndrome is one of the most common causes of fast heart rate disorders in
infants and children.
Causes
Normally,
electrical signals in the heart go through a certain pathway that helps the
heart beat regularly. The wiring of the heart prevents extra beats from
occurring and keeps the next beat from happening too soon.
In
people with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, some of the heart's electrical
signal goes down an extra (accessory) pathway. This may cause a very rapid
heart rate called supraventricular tachycardia.
Most
people with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome do not have any other heart
problems. However, this condition has been linked with other conditions, such
as Ebstein's anomaly. There is
also a form that runs in families.
Symptoms
How
often the rapid heart rate occurs depends on the patient. Some people with
Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome may have just a few episodes of rapid heart
rate. Others may have the rapid heart rate once or twice a week or more.
Sometimes there are no symptoms, and the condition is found when a heart
test is done for another reason.
A
person with this syndrome may have:
- Chest pain or chest tightness
- Dizziness
- Light-headedness
- Fainting
- Palpitations (a sensation of feeling your heart beat)
- Shortness of breath
Exams and Tests
An
exam performed during a tachycardia episode will show a heart
rate faster than 100 beats per minute. A normal heart rate
is 60 - 100 beats per minute in adults, and under 150 beats per minute in
newborns, infants, and small children. Blood pressure will be normal
or low.
If
the patient is currently not having tachycardia, the physical exam may be
completely normal.
Wolff-Parkinson-White
syndrome may be diagnosed with the following tests:
- Continuous ambulatory ECG monitoring (such as with a Holter monitor)
- ECG (electrocardiogram)
A
test called an electrophysiologic study (EPS) is done using
catheters that are threaded up to the heart from an IV placed in the leg. It may
help identify the location of the extra electrical pathway.
Treatment
Medicine
such as adenosine, antiarrhythmic drugs, and amiodarone may be used to
control or prevent a rapid heartbeat.
If
the heart rate does not return to normal with medication, doctors may use a
type of therapy called electrical cardioversion (shock).
The
long-term treatment for Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is catheter
ablation. This procedure involves inserting a tube (catheter) into an artery
through a small cut near the groin up to the heart area. When the tip reaches
the heart, the small area that is causing the fast heart rate is destroyed
using a special type of energy called radiofrequency.
Open heart surgery to burn
or freeze the extra pathway may also provide a permanent cure for
Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. However, surgery is usually done only if you
need surgery for other reasons.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Catheter
ablation cures this disorder in most patients. The success rate for the
procedure ranges between 85 and 95%. Success rates will vary depending on
the location and number of extra pathways.
Possible Complications
- Complications of surgery
- Heart failure
- Reduced blood pressure (caused by rapid heart rate)
- Side effects of medications
The
most severe form of a rapid heartbeat is ventricular fibrillation.
It may rapidly lead to shock or death, and requires emergency treatment
(cardioversion). Atrial fibrillation can lead to ventricular fibrillation.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call
your health care provider if:
- You have symptoms of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome
- You have this disorder and symptoms get worse or do not improve with treatment
Because
there are some inherited forms of this condition, discuss with your health care
provider whether your family members should be screened.

I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease a year ago at the age of 68. For several months I had noticed tremors in my right hand and the shaking of my right foot when I was sitting. My normally beautiful cursive writing was now small cramped printing. And I tended to lose my balance. Neurologist had me walk down the hall and said I didn’t swing my right arm. I had never noticed! I was in denial for a while as there is no history in my family of parents and five older siblings, but now accept I had classic symptoms. I was taking pramipexole (Sifrol), carbidopa/levodopa and Biperiden, 2 mg. and started physical therapy to strengthen muscles. nothing was really working to help my condition.I went off the Siferol (with the doctor’s knowledge) and started on parkinson’s herbal formula i ordered from Solutions Health Herbal Clinic, my symptoms totally declined over a 5 weeks use of the Parkinsons disease natural herbal formula. i am now almost 70 and doing very well, the disease is totally reversed!

I am a 51 year old female that just found out I have Motor Neuron Disease Parkinson's about a year and half, but I have been having signs of it for years, tremors, depression, body weakness. ECT. I honestly don't think my doctor was reading the signs because of my gender and age. A few years ago I had my shoulder lock up on me and I was sent to a P.T since x-rays didn't show any physical damage. My shaking was getting worse and I began falling. Only when my speech became so bad that it brought concern to my dentist was Parkinson's even considered. He phoned my doctor with his concerns about my shaking and balance problems. By this time I was forgoing shots in the back of my neck for back and neck pain to which once again I was sent to a P.T (although x-rays showed no damage) I was told I had a few spurs which were most likely causing the pain. Here I was feeling like my whole body was falling apart and doctor could not find anything wrong, maybe in was all in my head? My doctor even seemed annoyed with me and things just kept progressing and I just kept it to myself, why bother going through testing and them finding nothing? Well, it was after my second P.T called my doctor about the weakness in my legs and arms, by this time I have developed a gait in my walk and I fell more frequently. Only then did my doctor send me to a specialist and it was found that I had Parkinson's, and that I have had it for awhile. I think because I was a woman that my signs and symptoms weren't taken seriously and therefor left untreated for so long,I was taking pramipexole dihydrochloride three times daily, I Was on carbidopa levodopa but only lasted 90 minutes then wore off.I found that none of the current medications worked effective for me.I got tired of using those medication so I decided to apply natural herbs formula that was prescribed to me by my second P.T, i purchase the herbal formula from totalcureherbsfoundation. com, There has been huge progression ever since I start the treatment plan which will last for 15 weeks usage.all the symptoms and sign has begin to disappear .

ReplyDeleteSincerely i was so sad when my husband was diagnosed of Parkinsons disease 2 years ago, when he was 49. He had a stooped posture, tremors, right arm does not move and also a pulsating feeling in his body. He was placed on Senemet for 8 months and then Siferol was introduced and replaced the Senemet, during this time span he was also diagnosed with dementia. He started having hallucinations, lost touch with reality. Suspecting it was the medication I took him off the Siferol (with the doctor’s knowledge) and started him on PD natural herbal formula we ordered from Dr James, his symptoms totally declined over a 3 weeks use of the Dr James HERBAL Formula or Parkinsons disease natural herbal formula. He is now almost 51 and doing very well, the disease is totally reversed! my Husband was cured and now my Husband is free from Parkinsons, i went to the hospital that said there was no cure to Parkinsons and informed them about my Husband healing and they were surprised. here is the contact email ( jamesherbalformula@gmail.com ) also reach him on hangout or through his whatsapp number via +2348102574680 Regards.
ReplyDeleteI was diagnosed in November 2007 with Parkinson's Disease. I have left side tremors, balance and gait issues and some non-motor symptoms: quiet voice, some cognitive decline, small handwriting. I am currently on Sinemet for tremors and Cymbalta for neuropathy related to diabetes and previous chemotherapy. It was on my 25th anniversary of surviving breast cancer that I got the PD diagnosis. I am 69, retired, single woman sharing a house with my sister. I like to read, quilt, and crochet. I have been reading up on PD. Until I read too much and it scares me. Then I put it away until I calm down and can research it some more. I need advice and some direction. I searched further, visited Parkinson’s websites, blogs. I find info about someone having the same symptoms. I was really determined. Fortunately for me, I stumbled on a testimony of someone who had Parkinson’s for several years and was cured through Herbal medication. I read awesome stories of people whose condition were worse. I was not a fan of Herbal Medication, because I once believed that they have not researched it enough. But due to numerous testimonies I was more than willing to try it…. I contacted Dr. Fabien, and I purchased the medicine and used just the way doctor instructed. Its a thing of joy to come back and make my review.. It became a miracle for me within 7 months. The herbal medication worked without any trace of side effects on I’m…. totally free. I have been cured for Parkinson’s. I was a shocking experience with the medicine. I never knew I will be free for Parkinson’s disease. Email dr.fabiencontantin@gmail.com or www.kunimeherbs.com
