Wolff-Parkinson-White or WPW syndrome is a common heart condition that can cause heart abnormalities (faster beats) episodes. The cause is due to an extra electrical connection in the heart, and this problem will be present since birth (congenital), but the symptoms may not develop until later in life. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sometimes, the extra electrical connection won’t cause any signs and only be visible through an electrocardiogram (ECG) test. In many cases, the syndrome develops in otherwise healthy young adults. If the results are positive through an ECG, you will require further tests to determine the treatments required. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
