| '''1.''' An exercise stress test, when the child is old enough to comply, is a reasonable component of the evaluation if the ambulatory ECG exhibits persistent preexcitation ''([[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|Level of Evidence: B]]/[[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|Level of Evidence: C]])''. In patients with clear and abrupt loss of preexcitation at physiological heart rates, the accessory pathway properties pose a lower risk of sudden death. In children with subtle preexcitation the ECG and exercise test may be difficult to interpret.

| '''2.''' Utilization of invasive risk stratification (transesophageal or intracardiac) to assess the shortest preexcited R-R interval in atrial fibrillation is reasonable in individuals whose noninvasive testing does not demonstrate clear and abrupt loss of preexcitation.''([[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|Level of Evidence: B]]/[[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|Level of Evidence: C]])''}}

| 3. Young patients with a Shortest Pre-Excited R-R Interval (SPERRI) ≤250 ms in atrial fibrillation are at increased risk for sudden cardiac death (SCD). It is reasonable to consider catheter ablation in this group, taking into account the procedural risk factors based on the anatomical location of the pathway. ''([[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|Level of Evidence: B]]/[[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|Level of Evidence: C]])''
| |
| | |
| 4. Young patients with a SPERRI >250 ms in atrial fibrillation are at lower risk for SCD, and it is reasonable to defer ablation. ''([[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|Level of Evidence: C]])'' Ablation may be considered in these patients at the time of diagnostic study if the location of the pathway and/or patient characteristics do not suggest that ablation may incur an increased risk of adverse events, such as AV block or coronary artery injury ''(Class IIB, [[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|Level of Evidence: C]])''
| |
| | |
| 5. Young patients deemed to be at low risk might subsequently develop cardiovascular symptoms such as syncope or palpitations. These patients should then be considered symptomatic and may be eligible for catheter ablation procedures regardless of the prior assessment.}}
