Pre-excitation syndrome - what does this mean
Pre-excitation syndrome is a condition in which the electrical signals in the heart are conducted abnormally, resulting in a rapid heartbeat. this condition occurs when the electrical signals from the atria, the upper chambers of the heart, travel abnormally through an accessory pathway to the ventricles, the lower chambers of the heart, before they can travel through the normal conduction pathway. this results in a rapid, irregular heartbeat.
What happens during the disease - pre-excitation syndrome
Pre-excitation syndrome is a condition in which the electrical signals in the heart bypass the normal conduction pathways and travel directly from the atria to the ventricles. this leads to an abnormally short ventricular action potential and a rapid heartbeat, which can cause symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, and shortness of breath. the underlying cause of pre-excitation syndrome is usually an abnormal connection between the atria and ventricles, such as an accessory pathway or an abnormal conduction pathway.

Pre-excitation syndrome - Prevention
Preventing pre-excitation syndrome requires regular check-ups with a cardiologist to monitor for any changes in heart rhythm, as well as lifestyle modifications such as avoiding caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco, and getting enough rest and exercise. additionally, medications such as beta-blockers and calcium channel blockers may be prescribed to reduce the risk of arrhythmias.
