Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
It is usually identified through heart rhythm studies when palpitations or episodes of a racing heartbeat are being investigated. Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is a heart condition present from birth, in which there is an extra electrical pathway that can cause the heartbeat to speed up suddenly.
Common symptoms: Intense palpitations, a sensation that the heart is beating very fast, dizziness or, at times, shortness of breath during episodes.
When to seek care? An evaluation is worthwhile in the presence of unexplained episodes of a racing heartbeat, especially if they are accompanied by dizziness or fainting.
The cardiologist is the professional suited to studying the heart's electrical activity and guiding follow-up; in the presence of recurrent palpitations, the prudent thing is to schedule a specialized consultation.
