The main inherited cardiac arrhythmias are long QT syndrome, short QT syndrome,
catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia and Brugada syndrome. These rare …

For the last 10 years, applying new sequencing technologies to thousands of whole exomes
has revealed the high variability of the human genome. Extreme caution should thus be …

The following briefly reviews features and management of long QT syndrome (LQTS),
Brugada Syndrome, catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), and …

Long QT syndrome, short QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome and catecholaminergic
polymorphic ventricular tachycardia are inherited primary electrical disorders that …

Over the last decade, we have witnessed a revolution in the understanding of primary
cardiac arrhythmia syndromes. These remarkable advances stemmed from the discovery of …

Background: Implicit in the genetic evaluation of patients with suspected genetic diseases is
the assumption that the genes evaluated are causative for the disease based on robust …

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) accounts for 230,000 to 350,000 deaths per year in the United
States. While many who suffer SCD possess underlying structural heart disease, inherited …

Background Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an arrhythmogenic disease associated with sudden
cardiac death (SCD) that seldom manifests or is recognized in childhood. Objectives The …

Ventricular arrhythmia (VA) in structurally normal hearts can be broadly considered under
non–life-threatening monomorphic and life-threatening polymorphic rhythms. Monomorphic …

Abstract In 1992, the Brugada syndrome (BrS) was recognized as a disease responsible for
sudden cardiac death, characterized by a right bundle-branch block with ST segment …
