LONG QT SYNDROME [PDF]

open access: bronzeCardiology Clinics, 2000
In conclusion, much has been learned in the past several years regarding the molecular biology of LQTS, and this information has been directly applicable to the clinical care of patients with this syndrome. The knowledge also has been of considerable importance for understanding the molecular basis of arrhythmias in general and is providing insights ...

Long QT Syndrome

American Journal of Critical Care, 2006
Some researchers claim that babies should be routinely tested for long QT syndrome (LQTS) by electrocardiogram (ECG) at around 3 weeks of age because it would be cost-effective and save lives. Bottom line. The ECG is neither sensitive nor specific to hereditary LQTS and can be hard to interpret in newborns.

The long QT syndrome

Current Problems in Cardiology, 1980
The still inadequate but increasing awareness of the existence of the idiopathic long QT syndrome (LQTS) has provided ample evidence that, as suggested by many, this disease is far from being rare. This notion, coupled with the unusual pathophysiological characteristics and with the high degree of lethality in untreated patients, explains why the LQTS ...

The long QT syndromes

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine, 1996
Abstract The congenital long QT syndromes are a heterogeneous group of disorders that are characterized by prolongation of the QT interval on the 12-lead electrocardiogram, episodes of syncope, ventricular arrhythmias such as torsades de pointes and a high incidence of sudden death.

Long QT Syndrome and Short QT Syndrome

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2008
The long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a genetic disorder characterized by prolongation of the QT interval in the electrocardiogram (ECG) and a propensity to torsades de pointes ventricular tachycardia frequently leading to syncope, cardiac arrest, or sudden death usually in young otherwise healthy individuals.
