Efficacy and safety of the adenosine administration test in the management of Wolff-Parkinson-White pattern in children with delta waves.
Cardiol Young

Saitama Children's Medical Center, Division of Pediatric Cardiology, Saitama, Japan.
Background: The Wolff-Parkinson-White pattern is a delta wave frequently detected in school-based cardiovascular screening programs in Japan. Although most children with Wolff-Parkinson-White pattern are asymptomatic, initial symptoms may include syncope or sudden death, necessitating accurate diagnosis and management. Delta waves can also indicate a fasciculoventricular pathway, which poses no risk and does not require management.

Article Synopsis
- - Telecardiology effectively enables ECG screening for large groups, successfully evaluating non-competitive athletes (NCA) across Italy over a four-year study period.
- - In a sample of 216,424 NCA, 88 individuals (4.1 per 10,000) were identified with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome, primarily in the 10-15 year age group, with no significant sex differences noted.
- - The study revealed that the most common accessory pathways for WPW syndrome were in the right antero-septal, mid-septal, and postero-septal areas, with 9% of those diagnosed exhibiting intermittent pre-excitation.

A change in QT interval and ST-segment after radiofrequency catheter ablation in pediatric patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
J Electrocardiol
December 2024
Department of Pediatrics, Toyama Prefectural Central Hospital, Toyama, Japan.
Article Synopsis
- A study on pediatric patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome examined how radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFA) affects QT, JT intervals, and ST-segment changes.
- Out of 27 patients, those with ventricular preexcitation (manifest group) had a notably longer QT interval before RFA compared to those without it (concealed group), and their QT interval significantly shortened after the procedure.
- Although transient ST-segment changes and abnormalities were common in the manifest group post-RFA, most ECG changes normalized within one month.
A computational study on the influence of antegrade accessory pathway location on the 12-lead electrocardiogram in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.

Article Synopsis
- * Current methods using a standard 12-lead ECG often fail to pinpoint the exact locations of these accessory pathways (APs), leading to challenges in successful treatment outcomes.
- * The study employs a virtual cardiac model to analyze the relationship between AP location and ECG signals, providing insights into the limitations of current diagnostic methods and suggesting that these models can improve ECG accuracy and personalized treatment approaches.
