Supports accessory pathway evaluation in WPW to mitigate sudden death risk; leaves open optimal screening and intervention thresholds.
Highlights the risk of sudden death in patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, primarily driven by atrial fibrillation with rapid conduction over the accessory pathway.
