OBJECTIVES To improve the diagnostic criteria of the congenital long QT syndrome in borderline cases we examined rate adaptation of ventricular repolarization phases during exercise and subsequent recovery in children with the long QT syndrome and controls. METHODS Nineteen children with definite long QT syndrome and 19 healthy controls underwent exercise testing. QT intervals were measured t...

BACKGROUND Congenital long-QT syndrome is a disorder resulting in ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death. The most common forms of the long-QT syndrome, types 1 and 2, are caused by mutations in the potassium-channel genes KCNQ1 and KCNH2, respectively. Although inheritance of the long-QT syndrome is autosomal dominant, female predominance has often been observed and has been attributed to an...

Long QT syndrome, which is defined by corrected QT interval longer than 0.45 seconds in men and o. 47 sec in women , could be divided into idiopathic (congenital ) and acquired forms. The idiopathic form is a familial disorder that can be associated with sensorineural deafness (Jervell and Lange- Neelson syndrome), which is transmitted with an autosomal recessive pattern. Although this syndrome...

Long QT syndrome is characterized by prolongation of the corrected QT (QTc) interval on the surface electrocardiogram and is associated with precipitation of torsade de pointes (TdP), a polymorphic ventricular tachycardia that may cause sudden death. Acquired long QT syndrome describes pathologic excessive prolongation of the QT interval, upon exposure to an environmental stressor, with reversi...

In approximately 5 percent of sudden cardiac deaths, no demonstrable anatomic abnormality is found. Some cases are caused by sudden arrhythmia death syndrome. A prolonged QT interval is a common thread among the various entities associated with sudden arrhythmia death syndrome. A number of drugs are known to cause QT prolongation (e.g., terfenadine), as are hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, myocardi...

Congenital long QT syndrome is an inherited disorder of cardiac repolarization that predisposes to syncope and to sudden death from polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. The disorder should be suspected when the electrocardiogram shows characteristic QT abnormalities, or when there is a family history of long QT syndrome or of an event that raises suspicion of long QT syndrome, such as sudden de...

Long QT syndrome is associated with lethal tachyarrhythmia that can lead to syncope, seizure, and sudden death. Congenital long QT syndrome is a genetic disorder, characterized by delayed cardiac repolarization and prolongation of the QT interval on the electrocardiogram (ECG). Type 2 congenital long QT is linked to mutations in the human ether a go-go-related gene (HERG). There are environment...

The long QT syndrome is electrocardiographically characterized by a prolonged QT interval and by several other, more subtle, ST-T-U wave abnormalities, most of which have not been quantified. To determine the possible usefulness of several new electrocardiographic characteristics in identifying patients with known long QT syndrome, logistic regression models were applied to a data base of seven...
