Treatment in Western Medicine:
If you’re diagnosed with WPW syndrome, you have several treatment options, depending on your symptoms. If you’re diagnosed with WPW syndrome but don’t have any symptoms, your doctor may recommend that you wait and continue follow-up appointments. If you’re having symptoms, the treatment may include the following:

Electrical Cardioversion
If medications don’t work, your doctor may suggest cardioversion, which involves applying an electrical shock to the heart. This can restore normal rhythm. Your doctor will give you anesthesia to put you to sleep and then place paddles or patches on your chest to deliver the shock. This procedure is usually reserved for people whose symptoms aren’t relieved by other treatments.

Surgery
Open-heart surgery may also be used to treat WPW syndrome but usually only if you need surgery to treat another heart condition.

Catheter Ablation
The most common method of treatment, this procedure destroys the extra electrical pathway in your heart. Your doctor inserts a tiny catheter into an artery in your groin and threads it up into your heart. When the tip reaches your heart, the electrodes are heated. This procedure will then destroy the area that’s causing the abnormal heartbeat with radiofrequency energy.

Artificial Pacemaker
If you continue to have problems with your heart rhythm after treatment, your doctor may implant an artificial pacemaker to regulate your heart rhythm.

Medications
Anti-arrhythmic drugs are available to treat abnormal heart rhythms. These include adenosine and amiodarone.
