Cardiology 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 ...

Famotidine and long QT syndrome
The American Journal of Cardiology, 2004Numerous drugs have been implicated in causing a prolonged QT interval and Torsades de pointes. However, the association of famotidine and acquired long QT syndrome has rarely been reported. We report 2 cases of famotidine-associated acquired long QT syndrome.

Long QT syndrome and anaesthesia
European Journal of Anaesthesiology, 2002The long QT syndrome is a disorder of myocardial electrical conduction that leaves the heart vulnerable to the ventricular tachydysrhythmia torsade de pointes. Clinically, this results in syncope or sudden death. The long QT syndrome may be congenital, if caused by abnormal myocardial potassium or sodium ion channels, or acquired, if due to drugs ...

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2000
The clinical phenotype of the long QT syndrome (LQTS) is quite variable, with the frequency and type of life-threatening arrhythmias influenced by the specific genotype and a spectrum of genetic and environmental factors that are not well characterized.

Journal of Human Genetics, 2015
Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is an inherited arrhythmia syndrome characterized by a prolonged QT interval in the 12-lead ECG, torsades de pointes and not negligible prevalence of sudden cardiac death. The genetic testing plays an important role in the diagnosis of LQTS. A total of 15 genes have been reported for autosomal-dominant forms of Romano-

Cardiac Electrophysiology Review, 1997
Many important advances have been made in the last several years regarding the molecular genetics and physiology of the congenital long QT syndrome. These findings have significantly changed our perceptions of the clinical manifestations of this disorder, and added new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2007
The long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a genetically transmitted cardiac arrhythmia due to ion channel protein abnormalities, which affects the transport of potassium and sodium ions across the cell membrane. Patients with LQTS may present with syncope, seizures or aborted cardiac arrest.

Seizures and the Long-QT Syndrome
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1996We describe a case of idiopathic long-QT syndrome in a 4-year-old Hispanic girl. She had been seen previously at an outside hospital for possible new-onset seizure disorder but was brought to our emergency department after sustaining an unwitnessed fall. Her ECG was significant for changes consistent with long-QT syndrome.

Management of long QT syndrome
Nature Clinical Practice Cardiovascular Medicine, 2005Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a genetic disorder characterized by prolongation of the QT interval on the electrocardiogram and by life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias, occurring especially during conditions of increased sympathetic activity. Existing therapies are very effective, but mortality is high among untreated, symptomatic individuals ...

The beginnings of long QT syndrome
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2015The purpose of this study is to update the perinatal cardiologist and obstetrical care provider on the presentation and management of the fetus with long QT syndrome (LQTS).LQTS is a known cause of sudden death in childhood, adolescence and young adulthood that presents during fetal life, but is often not recognized.
