intervals between affected individuals and apparently healthy subjects. Gollob, et al. [2] proposed a diagnostic criterion for SQTS. SQTS is mostly seen in males and common presentation is aborted SCD (24-32%), arrhythmias and syncope [3]. As the risk of SCD is high in SQTS, ICD placement is strongly recommended for secondary prevention. However, role of ICD in primary prevention is not well defined. Information regarding pharmacological therapy for SQTS is fairly limited, and quinidine has been suggested as one of the therapies. SQTS is considered a rare electrical abnormality associated with SCD in individuals with structurally normal heart. Timely diagnosis and optimal treatment can significantly improve the overall prognosis of the patient and family members. There is a scarcity of data about SQTS in terms of its clinical presentation, diagnosis, genotype-phenotype correlation, riskstratification and treatment. This case aptly highlights the importance of bystander CPR in saving life in such disorders. Basic life support education should be promoted widely to save many more lives.
