Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: To review long QT syndrome molecular autopsy results in sudden unexplained death in young (SUDY) between 2006 and 2013 in New Zealand. METHODS: Audit of the LQTS molecular autopsy results, cardiac investigations and family screening data from gene-positive families. RESULTS: During the study period, 365 SUDY cases were referred for molecular autopsy. 128 cases (35%) underwent LQTS genetic testing. 31...
