Why the study?
It was not known to what extent pre-excitation affects myocardial and physical performance in children with asymptomatic pre-excitation.
Does asymptomatic ventricular pre-excitation reduce physical performance in children?
Does asymptomatic ventricular pre-excitation reduce physical performance in children?
Asymptomatic ventricular pre-excitation in children is associated with reduced physical performance, particularly in those with persistent pre-excitation during exercise, despite normal left ventricular size and function at rest.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Supports hypothesis of impaired exercise capacity in asymptomatic pre-excitation; leaves open whether ablation improves pediatric outcomes.
Książczyk et al. (2021) studied this question.
