Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome: discharge planning

Dimensions of Critical Care Nursing : DCCN

|July 1, 1990

Abstract:

Some patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome have potentially life-threatening arrhythmias. Symptomatic WPW is associated with tachycardias that are supraventricular in origin. Discharge teaching after surgical correction of WPW is critical to restoring the patient's previous life-style.
