    Wolff Parkinson White (WPW) Syndrome is a condition where there is an extra electrical pathway in the heart that causes rapid heartbeats. WPW can cause supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), where the heart beats very quickly, as well as other arrhythmias like antidromic tachycardia when the electrical signal travels the wrong way through the extra pathway, and atrial fibrillation that leads to ventricular fibrillation and cardiac arrest if not treated.
