Molecular biology and the prolonged QT syndromes.

The American journal of medicine - 1 Apr 2001

Towbin J A, Vatta M

Abstract excerpt

The prolonged QT syndromes are characterized by prolongation of the QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) on the surface electrocardiogram associated with T-wave abnormalities, relative bradycardia, and ventricular tachyarrhythmias, including polymorphic ventricular tachycardia and torsades de pointes. These patients tend to present with episodes of syncope, seizures, or sudden death typically triggered by...
