Altered ventricular depolarization due to manifest accessory pathway conduction (ie, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome) leads to repolarization abnormalities that persist after pathway ablation. The term T-wave memory (TWM) has been applied to these changes, as the postablation T-wave vector "remembers" the pre-excited QRS vector. In adults, these abnormalities can be misinterpreted as ischemia leading to unnecessary interventions. To date, no comprehensive studies have evaluated this phenomenon in the pediatric population. The purpose of this study was to define TWM in the pediatric population, identify preablation risk factors, and delineate the timeline of recovery. Pre- and postablation electrocardiograms (ECGs) in patients ≤25 years were analyzed over a 5-year period. Frontal plane QTc interval, T-wave axis, QRST angle, and T-wave inversions were used to identify patients with TWM. Univariate analysis was performed to determine the association of preablation ECG features with the outcome of TWM. TWM was present in 42% of pediatric patients, with resolution occurring within 3 months of ablation. Preablation QRS axis <0° was a strong predictor of TWM (odds ratio [OR] 15.2; 95% confidence interval [CI] 5.7-40), followed by posteroseptal pathway location (right posteroseptal-OR 8.9; 95% CI 4.2-18.8; left posteroseptal-OR 6.1; 95% CI 1.7-22.3). The degree of pre-excitation had a modest association with the development of TWM. No adverse events were observed. TWM is less common in children compared to adults, and normalization occurred within 3 months postablation. The most predictive features for the development of TWM include a leftward pre-excited QRS axis and posteroseptal pathway location.
