Signs Of Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome

Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is a fairly common condition that affects the heart, causing it to beat abnormally fast. This can last for both short and extended periods with the frequency of episodes varying from person to person. The cause is attributed to having an extra electrical connection within the heart. Though the problem is present when a person is born, they may not develop symptoms until later in life. In fact, many cases of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome are diagnosed in young adults who are otherwise healthy.
