Recommendations for Management of Asymptomatic Patients With Asymptomatic pre-excitation
| The class of Recommendation(COR) | Recommendations |
|---|---|
| 1 | In asymptomatic patients with pre-excitation, the findings of abrupt loss of conduction over
manifest pathway during exercise testing in sinus rhythm or intermittent loss of-excitation during ECG or ambulatory monitoring is useful to identify patients at low risk of rapid conduction over the pathway |
| 2a | An EP study is reasonable in asymptomatic patients with pre-excitation to risk-stratify for
arrhythmic events |
| 2a | Catheter ablation of the accessory pathway is reasonable in asymptomatic patients with pre-
excitation if an EP study identifies a high risk of arrhythmic events, including rapidly conducting pre-excited AF |
| 2a | Catheter ablation of the accessory pathway is reasonable in asymptomatic patients if the presence of
pre-excitation precludes specific employment(such as with pilots) |
| 2a | Observation,without further evaluation or treatment,is reasonable in asymptomatic patients
with pre-excitation |
