Short QT syndrome 7

Summary

Short QT syndrome-7 (SQT7) is characterized by a corrected QT interval of 370 ms or less and a J-point to T-peak less than 140 ms. Affected individuals may experience cardiac arrest and/or ventricular fibrillation at rest, and sudden death may occur. Affected children and most females are asymptomatic (Thorsen et al., 2017). For a general phenotypic description and discussion of genetic heterogeneity of short QT syndrome, see SQT1 (609620). [from OMIM]
