Title: The management of preexcitation syndromes. Author: Wellens HJ, Brugada P, Penn OC. Journal: JAMA; 1987 May 01; 257(17):2325-33. PubMed ID: 3573234. Abstract: The introduction of new techniques such as epicardial mapping and programmed stimulation of the heart has made it possible to unravel most of the mysteries surrounding ventricular preexcitation.

The purpose of this article is to review this information and to indicate how it can be used in the treatment of the patient with preexcitation.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
