The genetic basis for cardiac dysrhythmias and the long QT syndrome.

The Journal of cardiovascular nursing - 1 Jul 1999

Vizgirda V M

Abstract excerpt

Cardiac muscle excitation is the result of ion fluxes through cellular membrane channels. Any alterations in channel proteins that produce abnormal ionic fluxes will change the cardiac action potential and the pattern of electrical firing within the heart. The idiopathic long QT syndrome (LQTS) is an inherited cardiac pathology localized to mutated genes encoding for myocardial, voltage-activated sodium and...
