Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) Syndrome is a disorder of cardiac conduction which may cause recurrent atrial and ventricular rhythm disturbances, and even sudden death. The diagnosis of this condition or, more frequently the associated electrocardiographic (ECG) abnormality, in a professional aircrew member has, until recently, been cause for disqualification of that individual from flying status. The recent use of electrophysiological studies (EPS) in patients with WPW, and the use of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) to the accessory pathway(s), offers aircrew a safe and effective treatment for their condition.
预激综合征（WPW）是一种心脏传导障碍疾病，可能导致反复的心房和心室节律紊乱，甚至猝死。直到最近，在职业空勤人员中诊断出这种疾病，或者更常见的是相关的心电图（ECG）异常，都会导致该人员被取消飞行资格。最近在WPW患者中使用电生理研究（EPS）以及对旁路进行射频消融（RFA），为空勤人员提供了一种安全有效的治疗方法。
