Abstract excerpt

Inherited long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a cardiac disease characterised by episodes of ventricular tachyarrhythmia, presenting as syncope or sudden death. Untreated, the annual mortality rate is 1-2%. Sudden death has been reported as the first manifestation of the disease in some cases. Therefore, early (pre-symptomatic) diagnosis and management may save lives. However, clinically false negative relatives are also...
